You can buy bait fish in the 3-5 inch range at a bait store or try a minnow trap with dog food or crackers for bait.

Nothing beats a cast net for shad. You drive around 'til you see swirling fish at the top. You cast out and catch some of the shad and use them for bait. But I'll bet you cannot use a cast net so just drive around until yous see bait fish swirling around the surface. This means there are predators below. Go upwind and upstream and drift close to bait and throw lures close, then into the swirling baitfish.

Use birds to help you find the bait.

It is the ultimate "match the hatch"
