Today was a very good day. I got to the river about 6:00am and started to fish about 7:00 I wanted to try a little different set up. I didn’t see anything on the fish finder and nothing was jumping. At 10:00 I saw a Sturgeon jump. I got over there quick and dropped a line. BAM I am on!!! As soon as the hook sinks in the fish is in the air. I had quite a fight but it didn’t last long It took me less than 10 minutes to land him. This fish was about 4 foot maybe a pinch more.
SO I went back out to the spot. Again I see a sturgeon do a tail stand about 10 yards from the boat and BAM!! I got another fish on. WOW this fish pulled hard. But it was another “cookie” sturgeon 4 foot maybe a pinch more.
I thought WOW maybe 3 is a charm. I get back to the spot and BAM!!!
This fish fought good too. At one point he did a big splash right in front of my feet and then went under the boat. I had a couple of tense moments there.
Well I thought to my self there is no way I am going to hook up again. SO I go back out to the honey hole and NOTHING! The river flow was changing a bit and I could not hold in the hole. I started to drift down to the bottom of the hole and another fish rolls and BAM!! I got #4 on. From what I saw he looked about the same as the others. Then all of a sudden I feel him working into a rock and I thought I lost him. A couple more moments and he has me wrapped on a rock and my line busts.
It was an unbelievable day for me. I was beat by the time I was done. I landed all three fish in less than 30 minutes total. I have video that I will be posting soon. Ron
Nice work.
