LOTW - Rainy River Sturgeon

[WheelersPointResort]

 
What a blast to sit on the deck (or today inside at the bar) and watch over 40 boats land sturgeon.     Many are in the 30 - 40 inch range, some in the 40 - 60 inch range, and a few in the 60 - 80 inch range.  If fighting 100 plus pound fish does not interest you, enjoy a cocktail at our ViewPoint Saloon and watch the action.
 

Aren't you missing the Point???

That does sound like a lot of fun! I think this might be something that I will have to try next year.

I was up there again this year and i will be back next year. I have had people with me every year that have never caught one and they all say they will come back next year. So far they all have.  I did not catch a personal best this year, but a friend got a 62" 60 lb er, a best for my boat. All four of us caught at least one over 50 inches. So i say it was a good trip.

we ended up with 13 fish for the 3 of us. the biggest was 55 inches, the rest were 40 to 51 inches with one being a small 24 incher. we fished in the bay and went up by clemenson, we caught fish in both places. i brought a big time muskie guy with me, he had a ball. it is a different kind of fight than a muskie, but they pull hard and he liked that.................tom fellegy
