Sturgeon at Pt. Judith
 

A guy I work with foul hooked a 100+ pound Sturgeon while fishing Pt. Judith this morning. He had no idea what he was bringing in, but it was big! 15-20 minutes of holy S%&#. When it surfaced he thought it to be a shark but as it got closer it was a foul hooked Sturgeon.

I remember coming across a massive dead one on the south side of block years ago. It surprised the hell outta me, because I thought up to that point that they were strictly a fresh water river fish...

And a foul - hooked ANYTHING is a fight!

One night surf fishing in Maine I had ones breaching near me. Almost ^%$ myself

Maybe that was the one someone saw in the river up my way. We’re the pics

I've seen them breaching in the Connecticut river. But not a 100
Pounds.

Here is what he sent me

Spud, he got some very nice shots to document that! What hook placement! That must have been a bear to reel in.

Now that’s a catch…. :claps: :claps:

Wasn't that catch made up in the Merrimack River and not PJ? At least that's what the Surfland post on Facebook with the same images indicates.

Thats Kevin. I made a mistake, he rented a house at Plum Island not Pt. Judith. Thanks Toby for bringing this to my attention.
