05/24/95 white sturgeon from the mouth of the harrison river never got a weight on it but took measurements and they were 129 inches long 58.5 inches wide, you do the math. just under 2 hours on the rod. the fish went into the fraser and back into the harrison 3 times before we finally beached and released it just above island 22
that would have been pretty heavy then

Last year I caught a big white spring on the Vedder - it was in the 40's. But bigger, but much less fun was the roughly 400lb Port Beagle I caught while deep water fishing off Guernsey in the Channel Islands. That sucker was a monster, and took careful attention to release while keeping all digits attached. Amazing creature.
