Title: Sturgeon derby?
Post by: legend on November 04, 2005, 12:44:03 PM
Any one interested in a FWR members Sturgeon derby ? We could all meet at the same launch and head to the same area as each other fish the area for afew hours see who catches the most & biggest maybe bring a bbq out and have a few dogs or burgers and a couple wobbly pops to celebrate a great season of fishing for salmon and sturgie. Maybe plan for this weekend or next some input from others would be great I have a sea b-q for my boat and room for two more bodies which would be under the top. Lower or upper river don't matter could be a fun time out there . Any one interested let me know and we'll see if we can't organize it if this works out maybe we could make it an annual event. Would be fun to meet all you other sturgie hunters in person and make this happen.

Well, I have no rod or boat, but I can certainly fill a seat, and fish with someone ELSE's gear  ;D

Was out yesterday for Sturgeon and it was pretty good from 10-2pm. Caught quite a few but nothing over 5 feet. After 2pm with the tide change it really slowed down and fish were few and far between.

Awwww Nuts, I was hoping this thing would be a go as I have never been able to get to those prime spots.  I don't have a boat, but I love fishing for sturgeon, when there is a chance that you could hook into an absolute monster!!!!! ;) ;)
