Actually, I got the sturgeons at around the 2nd can from the launch (where I had been fishing). I did try the spot you suggested once or twice but I do believe that they can be caught anywhere in that general vicinity, when they are out and about, scouring the bottom for food....
Speaking of food. I'm not even sure what bait I caught the larger sturgeon on. I had a two hook rig, each hook baited with something different, and I lost all my terminal tackle in the landing process...It was either shrimp or dead gobie...
No luck with pictures [frown] It was pitch dark by the time I landed it and all I had was my cell phone camera. One of the kids flocking around took a pic with his phone camera and attempted to send it to me but that didn't work out, and I think it was a pretty lousy pic, anyway, from what I saw...I must start to carry some type of cheap camera (with a flash) in my tackle box.
Are you talking about 23 mile road? Well I think that is all clear, but I don't usually go that way, preferring to take 26 mile. I do hope you make it out there again, some time. I plan to continue to go as long as I can afford the gas...not a real short trip for me either.
