Joel & Mindy had rescheduled their trip for sturgeon last month and today was the day! They were hoping to catch their very first one, but really didn’t know what to expect. If I could mark them, they would catch them!

We set up in an area that showed signs of life and although it did take longer than I wanted, Mindy managed to catch a juvenile. It was cute to see but not what I was looking for!

I had been contemplating a move, but held a little longer when I began marking more fish. Apparently it was a good choice too as we never left the area the entire day. Once the fish began to bite, we saw action all day long. The best period was definitely when the moon was setting as the bigger fish seemed to eat. They caught several quality ones that fought like champs. Most of them even jumped giving everyone a great view of their size.

Today was one of those beautiful fall days and I think everyone that owned a boat, was on the water. At least we didn’t have to deal with too many pleasure craft, as all the boats seemed to be fishermen!

As the afternoon passed, Mindy and Joel kept catching and plenty of great fights were had. The long runs were fun to watch as they struggled to reel these fish back to the boat. It seemed like each time they gained, it was followed up with another reel screaming run. Every time I netted their fish, a sigh of relief was had!

The last fish of the day turned out to be one of the biggest but the fight was definitely the best. Joel spent at least 20 minutes on the beast, before bringing it to net. There was no sense getting the lines back in afterwards, so we packed everything up and called it a day.

With each fish they caught today, Joel & Mindy gained more confidence on just what to do. In the end, they fought every sturgeon like they had been doing it for years. I’m pretty sure they’ll be talking about this trip for a long time and remembering all of the battles they endured. What a great day for fishing!
