This week's three day sturgeon safari was unusually productive! I had
five hooked over the three days, and three of them to the boat. I
released two at opposite ends of the slot - one about 46" and maybe 25
pounds, another around 66" and 65+ pounds, I'd guess. I couldn't get a
good measure of him in the water, so released him to pursue his
pleasure upriver at the spawn. I kept one at 49" and 30 pounds.

Every one of them took the same old lamprey eel I've been carving on
for six months - actually longer than that, I think. I've frozen and
thawed it several times, and it still works great! Figuring the time
one eel lasts, at $40 per, they're still the cheapest sturgeon bait
around!

Wow! I'm still buzzed. It was an exciting three days of brawling with
the mighty sturgeon.

Woo Hoo! You always have a good fishing story, Dale.
Even when you get skunked. But I don't recall that happening.
