Adam, Pat & Peter joined up today in search of sturgeon, with a backup plan of bass & walleye if need be. It was Adam\u2019s birthday and I was hoping to get him a big fish, but lately they had been on the smaller side. Would today be the day?<\/p>\n

We headed to our first spot and set up on an area that I saw a few fish. Unfortunately, we were relocating after about 15 minutes of nothing. This went on several times before I headed to another place further away. This year has been really slow for the big fish bites and I\u2019m running out of time. With the season closing at the end of the month, I really hope that they finally show. This warm weather definitely isn\u2019t helping either!<\/p>\n

A new spot and several fish markings had me excited to set the lines. I was sure that they would catch some fish from here and it didn\u2019t take long. Adam was first up, seeing as it was his birthday and he landed a decent fish pretty quickly. The others followed in sync with fish of their own, when they managed to hook into a double pretty quickly. As luck would have it, one of the fish turned out to be a big walleye and Peter\u2019s personal best. It may not have been gangbusters but we were getting into fish and that\u2019s all that counted! We had periods of time that we waited, but the next bite always came. More often than not, they came in the form of a double header too! Adam fought one that I really thought was a heavier sturgeon only to find out that it was a fat catfish when it came to the boat. This was definitely the biggest one I had seen in several years and the largest one Adam had ever caught too! Plenty of pics were taken of all the fish but especially this one!<\/p>\n

Time was not on our side today as they were only here for a half day and we were nearing the end. I decided to fish till noon with the fishing starting to pick up and was glad that I did. In the last half hour 4 more sturgeon were caught, including one of the better fish at the last minute. I love ending on a high note!<\/p>\n

This morning may have started out slowly but we stuck it out and were heavily rewarded. Although the sturgeon may not have been the ones I wanted, they were still fun to catch. The cat & walleye were just an added bonus and a surprise to us all. In the end, the half day turned out to be a great one and everyone left having caught some of the biggest fish of their lives. I know Adam will be remembering this birthday for some time to come!!<\/p>\n
