Thread: how long after shad kill before fish start biting again

If there's a lot of gulls around and a good population of larger aggressive fish like rockfsh and hybrid, you're looking at about 7-10 days. Up to twice as long if you don't have an abundance of "greedy fish" as I call them.

Depending on how widespread the kill was, it can make for some darn good fishing come spring. Probably will start seeing a lot of "floaters" here on Priest after this next fromnt moves through. Hopefully these cold spells are doing a number on the mosquito and tick population too.
