St. Helens Sturgeon today
Three of us went out today in the fog, and I mean FOG. It was so thick we couldn't see across the Multnomah Channel. We managed one 44 inch keeper and about 15-20 shakers for 5 hours of fishing. We had a Sea Lion come up alongside the boat and then it went down and came up with a sturgeon in it's mouth so we must have been in a good spot. The sturgeon fishing got slow for a little while after the Sea Lion put on the show.

Re: St. Helens Sturgeon today
We were out at 7:30 am to day in the fog :grin: and had no trouble catching sturgeon (shakers) we had on @ 42 - 41 1/2 depending on how you held the tape, and a fat 41. We had a sea lion catch 5 sturgeon within 100' of the boat. 2 were keppers for sure; they looked liked four footers and three smaller ones  [img]graemlins/berry.gif[/img] ...Ross

Re: St. Helens Sturgeon today
I'm heading out there saturday, but I'd not a big sturgeon fishermen. I have done well along the fence and in front of Columbia City. Is there anything else I should know about that area.

Re: St. Helens Sturgeon today
George was a great guide today and a very nice guy, he does kind of have to watch his rod though :tongue: . He got us right into fish and we had a great time. The fish were biting on almost every thing that we through out there, The keeper was on calamari and worms. The three of us had a great time it is great meeting such good people on Ifish. I will try to post pics on friday. Thanks again for the open seat.
