Cool to see another area with a fisha le population. We have a spearing season through the ice in February and a catch and keep season in September on certain waters, as well as a catch and release season. I tried (unsuccessfully) spearing for the first time this year, and I'm hooked on those dinosaur fish. I'd like to try and get some through the ice this winter on hook and line.

My son and I went a couple weeks ago. He caught a 73 incher and I caught a 40 incher. We fished near Kettle Falls. I have caught them out of Astoria and in San Pablo Bay in California but this was his first time. They are super good eating if you can catch a legal one.

Sturgeon fishing always reminds me of "Fish On" by Primus, but especially when you mention San Pablo Bay.

"Fish on
I was just a little pup
And it was derby day
It was dad and me and Darrell
Out in San Pablo bay
Taco-flavored Doritos
And my orange life vest
Dad caught a hundred pound sturgeon
On twenty-pound test
Now he fought that fish for an hour
And a half
Darrell'd say "Jump ya sons a bich!"
And he grabbed for the gaff
When we got him in the boat
He measured six feet long
I was so danged impressed I had
To write this song called
Fish on"

Nice! I have gone a handful of times and keep getting skunked! One time a buddy caught a six footer near Twin Falls, ID when I was there. I caught the largest squawfish of my life the same day. They are tasty for sure if you get a legal one.

Thought I was the only Primus fan. Odd what comes up on sites. Remember back in garage days I was singer/bassist and Claypool was the man!
