Default Couple hogs in the fog

Over the last week we have managed 20 sturgeon and 3 over 40lbs. My buddy slammed this giant at 4:45 in the am a good 40 minute battle insued before we cradled this NSR giant. Our size chart shows this fish over 60lbs but without a scale it may be a few lbs lighter or heavier hard saying not knowing.the first two pictures are 40ish lb fish..... Any keep the negative comments to yourself please and thank you.

Photoshop, I call photoshop, no way did you catch a fish that big. Look at the hands, or was it the feet, or hell, I don't know anymore...

Kidding, great fish guys, looks like you got things dialed in there, thanks for sharing...

I must disagree. I am severely disappointed you did not have me in the boat with you. Great fishing day for sure. Congrats.

Has the adrenaline stopped pumping yet? Good Show!

The Fog adds a ridiculous atmosphere! Wicked.

Cheers

PS, PM me if you ever need an extra weight in the boat

I have only caught 5 or 6 that have been tagged so far this year. Everything else I have tagged so yes I have recorded all the info. I was unable to do a age sample because my cutters wouldn't open large enough to fit her fin in the jaws.
