The best spot I fished on the bay for sturgeon was at marker 25. about 30 ft(depending on tide) off the bank is a hole that comes off of a mud flat. It is on the west side of the bend that is there. anchor so you boat is just off the point the sturgeon feed there on shrimp and clams. I always used regular salmon gear. A rod that would handle 10 - 25lb test. 20 or 30 lb test line and about 4 ounces. Shrimp worked best for me. Fish there on the out going tide. not the incoming
