Saturday, my wife and I were fishing off Skamania Island (across from Mult Falls). One pole for sturgies and one pole for UBR's. Noticed a few guides fishing the area, trolling just off the Oregon side of the channel. Does anyone know what they were fishing for. Saw a troller pass close to us hook and land a nookie. We lost a nice chrome 25-30 lb'r at the net. Used a K-15 with a sardine wrap. Just wasn't pinned good. As far as sturgies go, lots of shakers up to 41 1/2", but no keepers. Used smelt with various scents, but no dout it was the combo of WD and Maries shrimp that made them bite right away. These shakers were literally flatening out the pole when they hit it. It was like that all day. The fish were also very skinny with no weight. Wondering if anyone else expereinced bites like that. Done tons of sturgie fishing, but the bite was real different. Was there any I-fishers up there on Saturday?
