Has anyone been doing good for sturgeon down in the Estuary? If so let me know, I would appreciate it. I heard from a friend who works a charter out of Illwaco, that it was slow last week. Any truth to that?

Fished in a derby over there last weekend. Most of the fish caught came from the Tounge Point area. We did have a little bit of trouble with sculpin below the bridge. Also try on the WA side above the bridge.
Sand shrimp and herring were the trick for us.
Good luck, the weather was nasty last weekend.

I fish above the bridge tuesday with a charter. We were on the Washington side and had all are fish in two hours. The Big one being 57 1/2 inches long. Even the small ones we but back were fat. images/icons/grin.gif images/icons/grin.gif images/icons/grin.gif images/icons/grin.gif
