Great fish
Great fish thanks for sharing. But, watch that sand in the reel lol! I ruined one last year for that reason. Now I have a rod holder to set it into while shore fishing.

Way to go NSRfishing! Congrats! They sure are fun to bring in eh!
Poorturtle and fellow sturg hunters - On average how often do you guys see a tagged sturg just outta curiousity? (Not to hijack this thread)
I'd say 1 outta every 40-50ish sturg I have seen caught have tags. Very rarely anyway. I reckon it's a good sign they are reproducing nicely. I see a ton of babies being caught too. 
Cheers n congrats again NSRfishing!

I was wondering if SRD was planning to do another study/report to identify progress on their protection in the river.... I'd like to find out more on how well they're recovering
