I believe I hooked into a sturgeon in Riley Cr. Pond a while back. Whatever it was, it towed me all over the pond for about an hour before I cut it loose. I knew that there was no way I was going to get whatever it was in on my fly rod, and I would end up breaking something trying.
I had on a hare's ear fly and was just sitting there with the fly resting on the bottom while I was looking in my fly box, when all of a sudden my line takes off. It was a good thing my pole was under my arm and not just setting on the tube.
It could have been a huge cat fish, but I think it was bigger.
Now there is a fish story of the one that got away!!!
