The Sturgeon site for the northwest |
Now that Salmon season is over we now concentrate on sturgeon. And please remember between 42 and 60 inches we have to conserve for the future of this species. Please check out the catches page to see how me and my freinds have done this year. I have just added e-mail to this site so go get yours today. Get e-mail |

White Sturgeon Acipenser transmontanus Habitat: Over soft bottoms in ocean; in deep pools of large rivers. Range: In Pacific from Gulf of Alaska south to n. Baja California; in fresh water south only to Sacramento River, n. California. Discussion: White Sturgeons spawn in rivers during the spring. Males do not mature until they are 11 to 22 years old; females mature between 11 and 34 years. These large game fish feed on small fishes such as Eulachon, and crustaceans, and mollusks. Sturgeons are highly regarded both commercially, for their caviar and meat, and for sport. |
Chovies and sand shrimp are catching fish right now. Try using them together. |
