DonMcJr Posted August 8, 2012 Posted August 8, 2012 My Stepson caught this 45 Inch Lake Sturgeon in the St. Clair River. It was July 16th, Opening Day for Sturgeon. Released to be caught another day!
DonMcJr Posted August 8, 2012 Author Posted August 8, 2012 I just realized this said walleye... but oh well we target and catch and release Sturgeon so if there's no section then I guess it doesn't make difference...
sslopok Posted August 8, 2012 Posted August 8, 2012 Sweet fish. I saw a dead one in port sanilac a few weeks back. It was 5ft plus and about 80lbs. First i had seen. Cool looking fish. Congrats to your stepson!
DonMcJr Posted August 9, 2012 Author Posted August 9, 2012 Was the dead one floating or on shore? Just wondering if it was reported to the DNR. I'm on the Board for the St. Clair- Detroit River Sturgeon for Tomorrow (http://www.stclairsturgeon.org/page-index.html) and we dicussed 6 dead on shore and one reported floating dead by Port Sanilac and Mike Thomas from the DNR said from what they found from the dead ones there was nothing to worry about.
