I walk a lonely road The only one I’ve ever known Don’t know where it goes But its home to me and I walk alone
At the shop for pix at noon
(Green Day)STURGEON Fishing, ITS ON!?It’s lonely up here.I finally scratched up enough bait to do a sturgeon trip. I had a couple of guys that wanted to get a sturgeon on Wednesday but they had some lady problems, causing them to miss our Wednesday outing.? I found a passenger, yes 1 passenger, to go out and look for some sturgeon.
The plan was to get the boat ready for sturgeon and get out on the river to find a pattern.?
? I looked at every stretch of ground from Benicia to Chain Island.? I found fish everywhere.? The most impressive group of fish is Roe and Ryer Island and Pittsburg PGE plant. ? These are the normal locations you will find sturgeon early in the year.? They have a tendency to pile up here as water is released from the dams the fish are pushed to deeper holes. This week I found them at the PGE plant in Antioch.? I found them on a gradual hump in 51 foot of water just upriver from the cable lines that stretch across the river bottom.

? I’m confident we can stay on these fish and limits or close to limits on sturgeon is more of a reality then a possibility. ??On Thursday, My friend Pat and I anchored up and caught 5 keepers in an hours’ worth of fishing.? We only used 7 baits and had doubles on 2 times.? This was at the beginning of the ebb. Call me a.s.a.p. I’ll be fishing the next 2 weeks as work gets a little hectic towards the end of October.
