Default June 12 dinos
I havent hit the rivers for a while, so I decided to get out today. The Bow was clear and I was hoping to at least see a few sturgeon jump and I did. First one jumped straight out and did a backflip out in front of me. Turned out to be a beautifully colored 47 incher. After that once the damn wind got howling I caught 3 more fish, all sturgeon, then ended off with a little mooneye. What a great day it turned out to be. almost to my goal now just 13 more to go.

I heard paddlefish is as good or even better. Granted they are allowed to be snagged in USA so they certainly have more advantage when not hooked in the mouth. Wondering if anybody ever considered bringing them over to Alberta... they have been successfully introduced to Russia and other countries. Too bad they can't be really caught with bait. One day I may drive to Montana and Missouri river to try it out, seems like fun river to boat and fish. Only 5-6 hr drive.
