You just have to be in the right place at the right time. I have been striper fishing on Smith Lake since I was 15 and I have only seen a school busting shad at the surface 3 times. They only last a few minutes too. Although I have heard of them lasting longer, sometimes as much as an hour. If you don't go very much then you obviously have less chance of seeing them. I use an 8" redfin when they are busting the surface. If you don't see them at the surface then it's pointless to throw one of these topwater baits.
