Oh I recognize that boat. I seen you guys out there a few weeks ago. You guys were having trouble anchoring up and almost came close to my boat. But no worries. I'm glad you redeemed yourself and got a few.
@@FishermansChronicles that's what I figured. Even with a good anchor it can be tough to anchor in that area at times. Thight lines and Hook'em big. See ya out there.
There is a gear list in the description, hopefully that is helpful. The leader was about 4-5 ft i believe, just make it a bit long so the braid doesnt get cut on the sturgeon's plates
If you pinch it just right with pliers the barb will break right off!.... Got 2 about a month ago 44" & 56" I kept the 44" smoked, grilled, & fried. it was soooooo good!... tight lines
State of California fishing regulations state it is illegal to use barbed hooks for sturgeon fishing and if you have older sturgeon rigs be sure to cut off the barb on the hooks before use or buy updated rigs.
In 1992, a26 year old got a sturgeon that was almost 500 pounds, about 5 miles west of you, he made a lot of money, how? He said I used this reel and this pole and this line was in this kind of boat this kind of hook! Thanks
I pinched the barb with pliers, there is still a small mound but if you look closely, the barb itself is pointing back at the hook, this way you can run your finger back and forth on the hook without feeling the barb whatsoever. Pinched it more after rigging as well, thats why the hook came out so easy once landed.
Thanks for all the detail how to fish for sturgeon

Yeah, we had a broken anchor and had to go back and buy another. Tight lines

Outstanding video! Thank you very much.
P.S. Would be nice if you’d mention hook size , leader length and specs for your rod and the reel :). Cheers!

Is the leader is 100lb?
I think 80
Gotta file down the barb or just buy barbless hooks just pinching down doesn’t cut it with the Dfg
Oh wow, i thought it did. Thanks for the info

Dfg uses a cotton ball
To check for barbless hooks
If it catches on.any.part.its a
$1500 fine and all your gear
Would you Please explain the barb hook issue in detail? In particular for this kind of fish.
Its just as a conservation measure, makes them much harder to catch

👍💯🔥🐟🎣
Catch you next time!
Awesome video
I love your videos! For me fishing is very slow on days with full moon or close to full moon regardless of summer or winter. Is that also true to you?
True for me! Moon of skunk, no fish period.
For me, not always... the fish behave different, so you may just have to try different spots or times/tides

Good luck! There have been lots out there
If that’s Pittsburgh I just caught 2 sturgeon on my first time fishing for them just two months ago one was a shaker the other about 48”
Wow! Awesome first time! Keep it up! This is Pittsburg
Can’t use barb hooks for sturgeon in CA. Be careful next time.
Yes sir, if you guys kept a slot sturgeon it would have been unlawful. Or even just targeting them. (I think?)
