Well Lil' Randog wen't off with a buddy for a day at the park and I had no charters booked, what else to do but go fishing ;D So Mrs. Randog and myself launched the Randojet and headed off for an few hours of sun and sturgeon. We arrived at our spot at around 11:30am anchor down, baited the rods then chucked them out. By the time I cleaned up my bait and grabbed a "beverage" Mrs. Randog says " look at the first rod," I turn around and it's almost bouncing out of the rod holder!!!! I make the mighty hookset and it's FISH ON! I offer the rod to Mrs. Randog but she declines. So I reel in the first of the day, a little runt of around 2 1/2' ::). Rods baited and a quick 20 min. wait and Mrs. Randog puts the slam dunk on a nice five footer. After a spirited scrap we boat the dino. take a few snaps and back to the Fraser he goes. All in all, we managed six sturge to the boat in less than three hours, all sturg. were taken on lamprey eels, and the largest was Mrs. Randogs five footer. The best part was coming home to a FEAST of fresh prawns, crabs, cesear salad washed down by some great wine put on by a good buddy. Finally feels like summer is here 8)
Tight Lines all!!

Sounds like a great day out!! :) I am going to try to get the first of my vacation tomorrow!! I guess that Mrs. Randog knew what she was doing when she declined on the first one eh!! Her strategy got her bragging rights till next time!! ;D
-

O and randy, your sturgeon leader is at the shop waiting for you.

Sounds like a good outing upper or lower river ? Have not been out dino hunting in about three weeks last time out landed two little guys near douglas island. It was about this time last year I landed an 8 footer in the pitt thinking of giving it a go out there tommorow possibly.
-
Just went through my posts from last year and found that the day I hooked the 8 footer was july 3 the pitt should be happening going out there tommorow Dewwies were the bait of choice last time.
