Default Monster sturgeon

So after a long hard battle of about 30 seconds of thinking my weight was just skipping on the rocks, i landed this monster!


First sturgeon, now after its parents

Hey Captain, I think I like to see as many of the small guys like that as the monster ones. It shows that they are reproducing and coming back, and now you can catch the 50+ one, nice pic and good luck...........
