catching shad for catfish bait?

i am wanting to catch shad to use for bait for catfish.i need good size shad,and by that i mean like 6-10″.
i plan on using rod and reel to catch these critters.
which brings me to the question:
what is the best bait to catch shad with?are artificial lures required to catch them or can i use Live Bait?
what kind of setup do i need to catch shad?
any help is great,thanx.

Well I usually wait till late summer when the big shad are out . I use a castnet . I find lots of shad at night near lights over the water. Now shad are fragile and hard to keep alive so I use them for bait but they usually die so they make the best baits for blues and channel cats.

The best bait I have found for large flatheads was bluegill . I use them in all sizes I prefer hand sized ones. Also large shiners work or suckers that you can catch out of creeks work well.

As far as catching the shad , I hear some people snag them when they run up rivers(not sure if thats legal though) and I have heard small white streamer flies work.
