From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The Cobb salad is a main-dish American garden salad made from chopped salad greens (iceberg lettuce, watercress, endives and Romaine lettuce), tomato, crisp bacon, boiled, grilled or roasted (but not fried) chicken breast, hard-boiled egg, avocado, chives, Roquefort cheese, and red-wine vinaigrette. Black olives are also often included.
We began our day before sun up and cast our nets to catch an interesting little bait fish â the shad. North Carolina actually has six different species of shad: the American shad, hickory shad, blueback herring, alewife, threadfin shad, and gizzard shad. Lake Tillery has threadfin and gizzard shad in it.
Use the right bait and lures. To catch larger, heavier shad you'll need to individually attract them with the right bait and lures. Switch them out to experiment with what works well with the fish in your area. 1  Flys in white or yellow with red heads are popular.
