Tried white sturgeon fishing for the first time the other day. After 6hrs of looking and tying numerous places... we found them! 
A whopping 84 incher from snout to tail!
Took just over an hr and a half to haul the big guy in. After the battle was over, we got a couple pics then sent him on his way.
Still wanting to catch a smaller, legal one for a keeper (had to be under 63inches) we ended up hooking into this pig.
This brute was a 77incher. It only took us about 45 minutes to haul this guy in due to experience from the first one. Once again, we fought him up to the deck, took a couple pics and released'em. By this time it was about 100 degrees F on the water so we left for the day.
Talk about an experience! This was even more fun than halibut fishing! If given the chance to go sturgeon fishing, I highly recommend it eh. You'll never forget the experience!
