I got my first sturgeon today.

Then about 5 minutes later it seemed like boneaddict hooked the same fish I let go

[billythekidrock]

Right on guys. Someday I hope to try sturgeon fishing.

[Coasthunterjay]

sturgeon fishing is a blast, I hope you guys catch a couple of those prehistoric old bastages out there........catch one like this.......

here are my two buddies from the tri-cities area.....steve and ronnie

[Antlershed]

catch one like this.......

...but please don't stick your hand in its gills like that.

Picture of HuntWa with a Sturgeon he got.....  Boneaddict in some fighting mode with a fish and Pope taking a close up of the close in action...... Huntnphool landing one.......... And the BEST pose of the day!  Say Cheese.  Never mind....  Good time for sure, learned some good areas on Washington side, learned that not all Lawyer jokes are funny till later in the day.....  Best of all, got to meet some good guys and fun water ride back in...

Cohoho, I had a great time and thank you. Thanks to Huntnphool, Boneaddict and Pope as well for the company. 

Too bad we didn't get any photos of the elk. 

[cohoho]

Anytime, maybe next time we'll hit them a bit harder...... 

[Alchase]

Great pics,

[WDFW Hates ME!!!]

Love them sturgies. Great pics.

Jay if i saw someone haul a fish like that out of the water with a hand in the gills for a "make me feel good about myself photo" i would be making a phone call... No reason to do that, if that was a big female and she had eggs, be sure that she lost them... There goes another spawning class, just for a photo... If you turn them over they will just lay there, if ya want a photo do it with them in the water not out...

[boneaddict]

Thanks coho for the pics.  It was alot slower than our first trip, but still good company, and a good day on the water.  The weather wasn't as nice as the pics might portray, but when the sun came out, so did the fish.  Doesn't matter though in boat like thes guys have.  It could get real nasty and life would still be good.   ANOTHER great day on the water THANKS to Huntnphool.   I Really appreciate it Rob, and the family enjoyed the weekend in Astoria. 

Good to meet you Ray and Mike.  Funny, you introduced yourself real quick in the morning, and off we went.  I was talking to Rob for a second and said there sure are alot of Rays out there with MRay(whose not really Ray at all) and Huntwa and cohoho's friend Ray.  He just kind of looked at me strange.  That is Ray from Huntwa.   OK so I am a bit slow.  I don't know, I had a picture of bosworth from california archery hunting in my hea with blonde hair...........anyhow, I think it took Pope by surprise too, so I don't feel so bad. 

The best quote of the day was after we dropped Rob's friend off, and came back to reclaim our spot......Cohoho chimes in over the radio noticing we were missing our fourth, "what did you do throw the lawyer over for bait."    

[boneaddict]

p.s. the blonde on the other boat looked much better than you guys did.......j/k who knows what we were looking at.

[cohoho]

Everytime we saw Bone, he was outside sitting on the engine cover, then it hit us, he was too tall to stand up inside, even then, I think he would have hit his head. 

[boneaddict]

   Nah, boat was plenty comfortable, I was just anxious for some action and I was waiting to rip some lips.  We went in for awhile and shut the doors when the wind got bad, and I was joking that I might be replacing a cover because if I saw a rod twitch, I might just drop a shoulder and go through.    Mostly, I'm from the Wenas, so the wind doesn't bother me too much. 

[huntnphool]

Had another great time with you guys, just wish the fish would cooperate a little better. Here is a pic I got of Huntwa and his first sturgeon.

Hey I know that hole!!!! Nice job Huntwa!
