I'm not sure when this fish was caught, but I sure hope its not the one we seen, dead, on the side of the river just above the Harrison river last weekend. 

That dead fish was pretty big and long, although, we could not tell the exact size, since the fish was already swell up.   Its the first time that I see a dead sturgeon on the side of the river.

I saw one floating down river near while travelling back up the fraser to NW from Sandheads yesterday.

the guy in the white hat is my old boss from summer job construction days...jerk head foreman... I wish ANYONE but him caught that thing lol. Quite a shock to recognize him in a pic online here, as I haven't worked for them in 5 years... small world.
