The shad rack is about a half mile downstream from the north bonnieville boat lauch. You will see an island and you stay to the left of the island there is a green bouy there. You will see the boats you anchor in about 10 to 13 feet of water. We use small dick nights the silver with red bottom. We use a 3 foot dropper and 5 foot leader and 2oz lead or 3 if you get out to far like in 15 feet' Watch the boats that are really catching fish and get above them in the same depth.

Shad are excellent for crab bait. Put a few slashes in them and secure them in the pot. One of my top baits!

Columbia River Shad are running good!!  On Sunday At the shad rack my son and I boated 50 shad and lost some too in about 3 hours of fishing. Released one jack salmon with a high fin caught on a gold & chartreuse dick night.

First off---why were you at the shad rack in a boat? It is closed from Beacon rock to the dam for boats.

We caught close to 100 shad at bonneville and Washougal in the last 3 days.
I'm tired now.
That section is only closed for boats fishing for salmon, steelhead and sturgeon  :rolleyes:

Sorry.
 I saw the rule change for Oregon and thought both states have the same rules.
 The oregon rules say no shad fishing.

I have a dozen or so in the freezer if any one needs some quick.
I have some small ones for sturgeon bait too.

The shad rack is not a place for beginners. If you go there make sure you have a damn good anchor and are proficient at anchoring in fast water with a river rock bottom. It can be hard to get your anchor to grab if the flows are up.
