Thanks for doing that, I love watching what is going on on the sonar while your pulling in the fish... Are all those marks bait balls mostly? Looked like so many that you had false bottoms at times.. Pretty cool thanks JThanks Jeff. And you're right. There were quite a few times that the shad balls were so dense they changed the bottom depth reading. A lot of the dense masses were small shad but there were also plenty of larger marks either above or below them...or mixed in with them. I suspect many of those larger marks were larger shad...since I saw a couple jump. But I am betting there were some crappies mixed in too. Never rigged or fished for them but next trip I will have a slip bobber rig ready. Used to do very well this time of year on suspended slabs.
