Holy sturgeon batman

Those can live to be 100 years old. A lot of things have changed since 1906.

Used to see them jumping at Tom Shoal (near Wasque) in early May. Nothing that size, however.

That's awesome. I'm sure that those guys caught that fish on the Fraser River. It's good to see that it's still in the water as it is required to have been released. Hopefully they took alongtime to revieve it and rest it up.

I used to catch alot of Sturgeon in SF Bay when I was a youngster. We regularly kept fish from 8-10 feet long. It's good to see that California came up with a slot for these fish. You can only keep fish between 41" and 6 ft. These fish have made a good comeback on the Snake and Columbia Rivers also, but the Fraser River will always be the best.

If you can find it check out the link video of the California Sea Lions killing & eating very large sturgeon in those Rivers I believe.

I'm glad they didn't see the need to kill an old fish like that like those guys killed that giant hammerhead in Florida.
