    I cant imagine eating any kind of shad. That would have to be nasty.

    Every year when I go to Walkers Dam on the Chickahominy River in Virginia to catch Herring, you see folks keeping Gizzard Shad for eating. I know as I have asked. They said they eat them fried. I like Shad Roe from Hickory shad and herring roe is hands down my favorite. I tried some deep fried salt herring one time and didn't care for it. Gizzrd shad I'll pass on.

    I'll have to pass on the shad. Smells to bad to even think about eating. Cats sure love them though.

    If I'm not mistaken, there's another species of shad over on the east coast called American Shad; these are supposed to be good to eat.

    I believe their Latin Scientific name has some word that equals delicious in it. They are right. Fine eating baked slow.
