Host Eric Coicher tries something new in this episode of Ultimate Catch, as he breaks out a fly rod in pursuit of freshwater Shad on Florida’s St Johns River. Veteran fishing Captain Tom Van Horn knows his stuff when it comes to this river, and he spots an opportunity to catch these saltwater fish as they migrate upstream to spawn in the winter months. After a few small fish on the regular lures, Tom has a go with a fly for a quick catch and Eric follows his lead. The fish quickly begin to grow in size and it’s not long before our host gets his first ever double hook-up!
