    Had the opportunity to target White Sturgeon in the San Francisco Bay Area with Captain Steve. We fished from 8-3 and maybe had 2-3 bites. Luckily we were able to stick one fish and land it in the boat. This was my first sturgeon ever and while it may not be the only one I catch, it will more than likely be the only one I keep.

    Can we take a second to appreciate this man's filming skills, instead of just doing everything with a gopro he goes above and beyond to film the whole environment and even the trip out there with many different tools... that's hard!! And he brings along fishing equipment with his filming stuff?! Props to you man

      You are correct. People are idiots who keep ANYTHING under 60" and should only be allowed 1-2 per YEAR! If you look up how long it takes a sturgeon to even start to lay eggs you would understand what I'm saying. These guys are huge assholes for doing this. No responsibility....no respect!! Fuck them!

      Ats all right, pollution or global climate change will kill em soon enough... Took about a decade to kill all the smallmourh in a river I used to fish... Runoff from the vineyards and silt from the banks destroyed the fishery . 70 years ago, it was populated with large quantities of sturgeon... Massive abalone die offs along the coast here, supposedly from increased water temp killing the kelp

    Spinal cord you can cooking too. My father use to boil it in the water (Back in Russia), for few minutes and then you ground it trough meat grounder, add boul eggs and green onion, mix with mayo and good to go as salad or as spread on your bread.

    Just a tip for cooking Sturgeon, if you're grilling or flash frying, its better to pre cook it in an oven for 20 minuted first. It really tenses up if you put it straight to a grill, better to slow cook it. Its actually perfect to eat raw as its such a refined flavour. Its lovely as sushimi with a bit of grated red onion and capers. My favourite way is marinated in red wine vinegar, poached with shallots, then finish fried with butter, thyme, and capers. Despite its dinosaur looks, its a delicate fish to eat bizarrely and tastes phenomenally good when cooked a bit more delicately rather than bold flavours. Im sure that marinade tasted great though! Id just pre cook it before grilling, and youll keep it nice and succulent/flakey, rather than meaty and dense.

    For those wondering:
    The recreational fishery for white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus) remains open year-round. The daily bag and possession limit is one fish that must be between 40 inches and 60 inches fork length. The annual limit is three (3) sturgeon per person. Short or oversized sturgeon must be released unharmed immediately; note that white sturgeon greater than 68 inches fork length may not be removed from the water prior to their immediate release. No snare may be used to assist in taking sturgeon. Only one single barbless hook may be used on a line to take sturgeon. The sturgeon must voluntarily take the bait or lure in its mouth. No sturgeon may be taken by trolling, snagging, or by the use of firearms. Sturgeon may not be gaffed, nor shall any person use any type of firearm to assist in landing or killing any sturgeon. Any person fishing for sturgeon shall have in their possession a non-transferable Sturgeon Fishing Report Card and complete it in accordance with California Code of Regulations Title 14, Section 27.90.
