Background
As an avid fisherman all of my life, I realized in 2013 that this was my calling. I got to work logging official sea time to become eligible for an MMC. In 2017 I began working with other charters professionally, and in 2019 finally obtained my credentials. I have been specifically targeting Sturgeon for over a decade and have had great success!
Techniques
Bottom fishing for sturgeon has been my passion for over a decade now! There is nothing quite like being tied into a dinosaur of the deep!

Trips remain successful as we continue our adventures on the SCR! Multiple giants have been caught and the numbers are sure to climb! Ecstatic to have the opportunity to show everyone a great time on such a beautiful waterway.

After being on hiatus sailing a great lakes freighter for 90 days, Rockets is back in action chasing dinosaurs. Multiple giants have been captured including a 73x35 and a 76.5x27! It feels great to be back in action and doing what i love! Come share in the excitement and adventure along side of me!

Last nights trip we had two sturgeon over the 70โ€ mark make their way onboard The Sturgeon General. The first one went 74โ€x32โ€ shortly followed by a 71.5โ€x30โ€ fish. The season is rolling into prime territory now! As the weather cools off, more fish will be making their way into the river system and the bugs will continue to mellow. Looking forward to September and October on the river!
