Instructional sturgeon fishing video that includes demonstration of how to rig Squid and Herring. Suggestions for catching more fish! Fishing with David Pyle.
My God man... all this time I have done everything but weld the smelt and or herring onto my hook and all I had to do was watch 20 seconds of your video and I'm now a masterba---er?!!!!!! Hahahahahahahaha I want a refund on 20 yrs of bait and 20 more years of free bait for you my friend!!! Lmmfao thanks for the video it is now my favorite of all time!! Fishing humor gets me hook, line & sinker!!
Some great fun love sturgeon fishing glad they are finally kinda protecting some of them still needs to be worked on but every bit helps and really nice that we can still catch and release them. As always thank you for sharing stay safe have fun
The way I rig herring there is no need to have a long leader. 12 inches is fine. If you're going to use whole herring or squid and you're using half hitches then I would suggest 18 inches. There's really no reason for a long leader. Sturgeon don't mind chewing on bait with a piece of lead nearby.
Great video! I see you have the Reactor 40 Kicker autopilot. I’m looking to adding that to my boat this spring. How do you like it so far? Did you do the install yourself of have it done at a shop? Thanks!
I usually put Bloody tuna on herring but lately I've mostly used it without scent. With squid I don't usually put scent on. I don't think scent can hurt... Sturgeon are following a scent trail to your bait.
My terminal gear is two bead chains held together with a split ring. The weight dropper attaches to the split ring. This setup keeps my main line from "spinning" and "curling".

Thank you for watching.
Thanks for all the knowledge you shared really appreciate it 🌅🛸🎣🤙
Glad you enjoyed the video.
Love the videos! keep it up!
Glad you like them!
Great job David. I think I need to tweak my hook position like you’re doing, but definitely like the half hitches. Thanks for sharing.
It's helps your hook up ratio for sure.

I see your leaders are around 18 inches long. Do you feel a leader that is 30-40 inches could be no long? What is the idea length?
Great Video

I'm going to do a video on Reactor 40 soon. It's an awesome tool. Had it installed at Portland Marine Electronics.
Would you recommend adding any type of scents or keep it natural?

What kind of swivel are you using for the weight?
My terminal gear is two bead chains held together with a split ring. The weight dropper attaches to the split ring. This setup keeps my main line from "spinning" and "curling".
What rods are you using
Shimano Trevala and Ugly stick. You can use a heavy salmon rod (8-9 foot). I did that for years and never had a problem.
