I catch Alewives at Tims that are 25 feet deep or more with a net. If you are finding them in deep water, you will need a Deep Hole net, otherwise the net closes before it gets to the bait. Try to find a large school of bait even if they are deep. I never use my depthfinder to find shad if they are shallow. Your best bet is to find them flipping in a shallow cove.
