Tayzak15 Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) Since I'm new on these forums, and I've noticed a few ppl posting pictures and recaps of their season. I figured I'd share a few images from my final sturgeon fishing trip of the summer. I usually go target sturgeon about 3-4 times per summer and this was the final run of the summer. We ended up catching 3, along with 100's of walleyes between the 3 of us. Of course everything was catch and release. I choose not to keep fish, unless I really have to (weekend camping trips, ect). Unfortunately I'm limited on the amount of photos I can add so I was only able to upload 2. Edited December 12, 2012 by Tayzak15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tayzak15 Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Nice fish (where are you located? ) Timmins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tayzak15 Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Ah, ok...nice fish! Thanks! hoping to get more sturgeon fishing trips done next summer. Always had to rely on someone with a ATV to get down to the launch. This upcomming summer I'm just going to chain up my small 12 footer down at the launch so me and my friends can just walk the trail with the motor and gear.

SirCranksalot Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 There was a thread here a little while ago that suggested(if I understood it right) that it was illegal to keep sturgeon anywhere in Ont. Now I'm confused! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tayzak15 Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Timmins is Zone 8 - there's an open season with zero possession. C&R only. Sturgeon is a touchy subject round here, that's why I asked where he's from. Yeah seasons open from Jan 1st-Apr 30th, then from July 1st-Dec 31. We never go after them until august, of course all are caught and released. In the month of June when we are at this spot as it is an amazing walleye hole too, you can see the sturgeon right around the shore doing their spawning, I have seen some up to 7-8 feet long up near the shore at this spot when were there for walleyes.

funfishing Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Cool sturgeon pics. Why no shoes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tayzak15 Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Cool sturgeon pics. Why no shoes? This spot was about a 20 mile boat ride from a makeshift launch down the river. When its raining like it was in those pictures these rocks we stand on underneath a small waterfall get extremely slippery. We get better traction off those rocks when their wet barefoot then we do with shoes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen them in Hudson Bay tribs as you've described. An amazing sight for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
