Put in at the pump station (at Yadkin/S Yadkin confluence) Saturday evening about 6 and went upstream looking for bait. Shad were tough to come by, but we eventually put enough in the tank to fish and went a little farther upstream to anchor up in a deep hole and wait for dark. This particular hole didn't yield anything but aggrevation as gar stole bait after bait for nearly an hour. I tried to rig up some rope on the line to snag one but never did have any luck. We pulled up the anchor and went downstream to fish behind some drifts just after dark. These spots were slightly more productive, with my brother catching a channel that would go 4-5 lbs., and me catching one that was close to 10. Unfortunately, that was all they produced and we packed it in just after midnight.
My brother and a few of his friends had went to another spot on the river Friday night and caught about 10 flatheads, but he said the biggest was only around 10 lbs.
