There are two signs of spring in Connecticut: the shad running in the Connecticut River, and the fires set up, surrounded by wood racks to cook them on. In an official Shad Bake, the fish is strapped on to the cooking surface with strips of pork.

Preheat the oven to 350°F.
In a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat, cook the bacon until crisp. Crumble and set aside. Pour off all but about 1 tablespoon of the bacon fat. Place the shad fillets in the pan, skin-side down, and season with salt and pepper. Bake in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes. Serve with the crumbled bacon over the top of the fish and lemon wedges on the side.
