Big Sturgeon - Saturday

Thats a dandy! finally a fish I reconize. We fish thema bunch here on the columbia river. that looks like a tasty keeper to me. The oversize are in the river right now. (over 5 ft as you only can keep em between 42 and 60" here) been catchin 6 to 10 footers. cant keep em but I love takin new guys out and watchin them get beat up by a fish for 45 minits. ive never landed one bigger than 10' but there are a few reachin 16-18ft seen feedin on shad up at bonniville dam. couple weekends ago I hooked what felt like a nuclear submarine. It broke my 130# dacron leader right in the middle. I use 150# mainline for these brutes with a ugly stick rod and a shimano TLD 20 reel. Good times!!
thats a classic picture of you two kissin. I love it!

Nice catch BS!  Time flies just yesterday you were moving out west.  Last weekend I got my closest encounter with a sturgeon a dead one floating in Lake Erie.  Here's my picture!  First dead one I've seen in 25+ years on Lake Erie.
