I've been planning on getting out for the last 3 or 4 years now to try my hand at some sturgeon fishing and finally made it out this weekend with my wife and kids. I ended up doing a lot better than I ever could have imagined! It all started when I walked down to the shore with my son to check out the camping spots when a large sturgeon jumped right in front of us! Another fisherman was there and he landed that 47" monster. So before doing anything else I got my line in the water. About 45 minutes later I had my first sturgeon and it was 49"!! Throughout the weekend we caught one at 47" a couple right around the three foot mark and two smaller ones. The highlight was Saturday night though when I caught a 58" hog!! what an incredible fish! My son was just as excited as I was and said "Dad can I eat the fish pwease?" So in the end we got the 7 sturgeon two walleye some suckers a burbot and a goldeye.
