Amen

We harvest all sustainable salt water species (salmon, halibut, cod) during the summer and early fall but once we return to the delta we fish sturgeon exclusively for sport. Though we do have many legal size and some oversize sturgeon per trip, It’s my hope in our lifetime like other sturgeon fisheries we will have a sturgeon population with many massive 100 plus inch monsters to tangle with.

I’ve fished cnr for white sturgeon in the delta for over 20 years in an effort to leave the resource better than I found it for future generations of anglers. I literally say no to a lot of money weekly by only fishing cnr. It’s a personal choice and I do respect and support differences of opinion from all fisherman who follow the law.

Lmao thats the whole point of fishing sturgeon out here in p town. To eat them

Garnett M Right. I hooked one that we estimated at 9 to 10 feet long near the ferry crossing by Rio Vista. It was along side our boat when it rolled and snapped off. Our net was too small and it was scary looking anyway. Great fun.

The roe was cured and loaded with scent but Zach doesn't like to share that info.

Biggest I’ve got out of the Sacramento River was 8.3 feet absolutely giant

The reels we used during our episode were Accurate’s BX-400 and BV-400

Go out with Zach and Virginia. You will have fun.

Dale D. It’s in a sack. No need for an egg loop.

I appreciate that reply. I'm wondering if with barbless hooks that the sack might come off on the cast, or in the current, or when falling to bottom, or when the sturgeon plays with it in its mouth?

Dale D. Bait buttons help the bait not slip off

HuskyKMA Rod-Phenix Abyss 807 or 808 $189. Reel-Shimano Tekota 600 $189. I live and fish the same area these guys were in

I chose to go with Daiwa because they are really dominating the market right now with quality and price. The high end Salitgas are awesome but for under $200 you can't beat a Black Gold Saltist with up to 48" of line per handle turn. The Seagate is similar at $149. Also the Sealine at around $100 or the Sealine XH with a great sealed drag for $125. It's the drag and the spool that your paying for so be careful about when you are buying reels. Some companies have cut costs by cutting quality lately. www.daiwa.com/us/ I am a Daiwa dealer so let me know if you need help. For a rod, there are lots of cheap imports available that will catch fish but in the long run you will be much happier with a higher quality rod. Since I've been working with Cousins, I've been impressed with the durability and feel. www.daiwa.com/us/ I'd suggest you go with the best quality you can comfortably afford and get out there and catch some fish.

The audio is normalized to what YT recommends which is way above what is normal for TV. Anymore at it would be over modulated and distorted. On my computer at 50% volume it's almost too loud bear with my headphones. Not sure how to make it any louder for you. It's difficult when everyone is watching on different things from phones to TVs.

I believe you can take them out of the water if you think the sturgeon is not oversize. Oversize fish cannot be taken out of the water.

I dont know about that. Ive heard from plenty that fish needs to be in the water when measuring and not out.

Mr Yang No that’s wrong. Nobody measures a legal fish if it’s in the water. Only oversized. Don’t you see that everybody nets the sturgeon then measures inside the boat?

If u can look at a fish and tell its exact measurements to the inch, more power to ya.... yes i just reread the regulations, yes its only for oversize... but tell me this, can u tell a 59 inch from a 60 inch to a 61inch? I dont think so, not in the water. Pull an over size out of water, and findout out its just 1 inch over, and having to release it. Well u better hope there no Game warden scoping u out. Id rather be careful than risk gettting fined or snitch out by other fisherman.. but thats me.. 1 reason why fishing off the bank makes measuring any size easier, over or under when fishing for sturgeon.

@@mryang3644 Lol dude this is too funny. A game warden will not ticket you if you take out a 61 inch sturgeon out of the water haha. There is no possible way to tell a 59 in from a 61 in sturgeon so there is no way a game warden will ticket you lmao.

Shes mine, back off🤬

She doesn't like dudes who hasn't caught any sturgies yet ... lmao!!

It's the Humidity.... Specially in the summer.

I thought she had kids

@@t.c.8796 LMAO

It's in all four segments--April 5th

it's raining game in Northern California! just hit the Bay Area and you'll see beezies like that in all walks of life

Hello Jack B in the California Delta with the purchase of a 2 rod stamp we can fish 2 rods per angler.

I would never eat a fish in that river and besides there ain't no fish in Suisun Bay anyways.

Suisun bay is LOADED with fish

If you think there are no fish in that waterway then you obviously don’t fish

@@glennmc3684 its been 5 years, gotten any smarter yet?

In California anglers who wish to keep a sturgeon may retain 3 per year that are between 40” to 60” from the tip of the snout to the fork of the tail. Our laws allow fish 68” or less to be removed from the water for an exact measurement. The law is reasonable and understands that an exact measurement in the water is literally impossible. Green sturgeon may not be removed from the water. Good fishing to you. - Capt Zack

@@gatecrasherfishingadventur2411 Great video, do you use scents with the roe? does it make a different if its frozen? thk you
