When the Bite Comes On the Bite Comes ON

Bronwen and Darwin decided that while they had done other fishing and now a sturgeon trip was definitely on their Bucket List and it turned out to be quite a day for them. As predicted the early part was slow as the tides were not favourable but when the bite came on it really came on! The first three hours were only two fish but the last three hours were 9 more fish with 6 hitting in the last hour including what was the "Hail Mary Fish" which was likely the largest of the day but broke us off just as we were about to head into the dock. In total 11 fish hooked and 8 landed (we are required to use barbless hooks) with 4 "Newbys" or fish that had never been tagged before and were added to the Fraser River White Sturgeon Conservation Society inventory. Bronwen and Darwin wanted to get out of the city and into the fresh air and sunshine, maybe catch some sturgeon and they hit a grand slam on all fronts. A great day on the water!
