Had some friends over from the Seattle area that wanted to try for some sturgeon, so I took them down to Central Ferry early Saturday morning for the day. We started fishing around 7 am. 15 minutes into the waiting game I look up and see my rod tip bouncing, Fish ON! All three of my friends switched every 10-15 minutes for about an hour, and before we landed that one my friend hooks one on his rod so we had double action. Both fish were too big. They wanted to see some of my other fishing spots so I decided to take them up to the Lower Granite Dam. Saw a couple friends Sturgeon fishing as well, which they caught a keeper the night before. We headed to a spot I call the "Green Light" and after 30 minutes it was Fish on! Seems like my fishing Rod just gets luckier and luckier, but unfortunately this was one another oversize. Not as big as the two in the morning, but a good 6 1/2 feet. Overall it was a good day. My friend's said it was the the best experience they have had on the East side fishing for River Monsters. Glad I was able to get them into some fish. Good luck to everyone and keep them lines tight!

I want to be your friend man what a great day of fishing. What was you using for bait?

Rocky, I was using crappie for bait. Number 1 bait in my books. It highly increases your chances of catching a Sturgeon (IMO). Last year that was all I used, and every trip down to the river we had atleast one fish on. There are good and bad days, but good bait your chances always increases. You are more than welcome to join me down there and fish with me. I'm always open to sharing my ideas and the techniques i use with others. You'll find me at the Lower Granite Dam this weekend!

There are a few spots at the dam.depending where other Fishermen are camped I'll most likely be on the south sore. But if i Dont make it down before the dam closes then i will be on the north shore.
