That fish actually even LOOKS big in the water! I think the pictures are about as good as you can get with a sturgeon, and that one is huge.
This has been a year-of-records for sturgeon! [signature]
I used to N.ot have E.nough T.ime O.ff to go fishing. Then I retired. Now I have less time than I had before. Sheesh.

Those are some fantastic sturgeon. You certainly have paid your dues to figure them out.

Great Big Fish Report - glad you got a new PB and had a un-eventful trip - [fishon]
Just gotta a small question - have you caught any small (under 2') fish this year ? The reason I ask is that several years ago you would catch quite a few and the past few years I haven't seen any in that size range - of course the fisheries guy said that the fishery is fine but most everywhere I've ever fished the small fish were always at least occasionally caught.

[size 3]Last year we caught a bunch when we fished the river from the shore around Bliss. I believe they washed into The Snake River from commercial sturgeon ponds. This year I haven't seen a sturgeon under about 3 feet. Information from a friend up there, "They have had successful spawning the last 2 years in this area...good news. They have also been stocking it with left over babies from the joint CSI/ Idaho Power sturgeon project." [/size]

On our shorebound trip this year, we caught several in about the 3 foot range with a low of 30 inches. [signature]
