The deeper the bait is the harder it will be to catch them even using a big radius net. Here are a few things that will help:
1. Try in the back of creeks or find the shallow flats they hold on.
2. Always remember you are throwing to something that is not a stationary target nor are you stationary.
3. The shad flickering on the surface if you can find are much easier to catch.
My buddy cast nets shad all the time from a kayak with no electronics. You just need to put more odds in your favor and build confidence after catching a few then you will be on your way.
