New to lake mead fishing

[Vegasjim]

Went out today and was able to locate striper at the end of the lake near the wash (sand bar that runs into the lake). Several small striper in the 1 to 2 pound range but had absolutely no luck with lures of any type. Only thing that seemed to work was shads in the 4 to 5 inch range. Was able to net some but been a long time since I have thrown a net. Any tips on locations for shads other than that area? I think I often would be on top of them and they quickly swam under the net due to the water being 7 to 10 feet deep. Perhaps any tips on how to better net them. Thanks
