I had the opportunity to go sturgeon fishing back in September. First time ever for me and it was one of the best days ever. They are a protected species so it was catch & release and as such, I cannot offer any smoking/grilling advice. Apparently you can buy farmed sturgeon but I've never tried it. These beautiful creatures are STRONG and jump completely out of the water. My arms took days to recover. It was an amazing experience and I have nothing but the utmost respect for these river behemoths.

Incredible!

I mostly fly fish for trout here in the New England Burt hit the coast for Stripers a couple of times a year and everything is fun on aa fly rod.

Nice pic 👍

I think the perch was the best catch of the bunch!

Let me recommend a trip to Venice Louisiana. If you want to stay close the redfish and trout are abundant. If you want the thrill of a lifetime book an offshore guide to take you yellow fin tuna fishing. They will leave you with arms that are so tired you’ll have to set for a bit.

I know which one was on vacation! NICE!

Love fishing. Stripers and Tuna in the salt and bass up north in Maine. A few on vacation as well.

Very similar to the Spanish Mackerel we get here. They have some very speedy runs when you hook them and VERY razor sharp teeth! We usually use 20# 7 strand wire for bite tippet.They make great ceviche to!

Just a follow up, the smoked Sierra is fantastic, best smoked fish I’ve ever done. I guess really oily fish is the way to go.

and your lines tight!

[CaptainMike]

Light tackle, too! Good man.

That is one of the best parts of life - standing in the middle of the stream, the only fisherman for miles up or down the river, casting not just to any trout but to a particular rainbow or brown.

Specks, reds and flounder in the Texas bay system for this lad. I occasionally go off shore for red snapper and tarpon, but that’s rare these days.

Keep your tackle dry and your hooks wet 👍
