Wow! Most exciting story

Here's a couple short ones. Funniest. My wife was salmon fishing for the 2nd time. We were using big quick fish and changed back to spinners. She hung her quick fish on the side of the boat rail. A little later she had a fish on. When she tried to get up she was hooked to the side of the boat via quick fisk. I got it undone(from the boat). She got the salmon then we got the hook out of her boob. Just the clothes. My most exciting has to be the first sturgeon I caught. We were by the locks at Bonniville. When I set the hook it said no thanks and took off. Not thinking I put my thumb on the line as it was breaking water. We landed it around the corner.real close to the locks, from where we anchored. I will never forget that. It was 61/2'. :shocked:

Welcome aboard, Trap! How long have you been fishing Oregon waters? Sounds like you cover the spectrum of Oregon's big freshwater fishes.
