Of course that is always a possibility but we were seeing these marks in 14 to 16 FOW and they did not appear to be as big as a spawning shad would be. From what I understand, crappie don't mark well, not sure how shad mark or if they travel in singles, like we were seeing. I've seen plenty of shad, young of the year and spawning shad that are close to the bottom near shore, just never seen them at 7 to 10 deep in 16 FOW. Maybe I'm just not aware of what they look like on the finder, pre spawn.
When crappie have a good spawning year, how long does it take before that year class can spawn?
