Default Eight foot sturgeon caught on the Sacramento River!

I headed again this week to the delta for another few days of chasing
sturgeon. My first day was a skunk near Decker Island, but a boat
nearby had to raise anchor to drift with a huge eight footer to get
him to the boat - and away from the damn furbag who tried to steal
him. They managed to boat him and move him back downriver to save him
from the sea lion - and I caught a great photo of him as they released
him.

On the second day I cruised down to Suisun Bay for a glorious day of
calm water and sunshine - but no sturgeon action.

Day three, back at Decker Island near Rio vista, I managed to reel in
a 46 incher that I chose to release for another day.

I stayed at Delta Marina and RV Park in Rio Vista, a very nice place
to spend nights in the coach and days on the water. Keeping the boat
at the dock sure makes heading out each day a pleasure.
