White Sturgeon
Sturgeon are always on tap for Catch & Release on the Lower Columbia
River. But Oregon sets seasons for retention of these special
prehistoric game fish. Common Names: Pacific sturgeon, Oregon sturgeon,
Columbia sturgeon, and Sacramento sturgeon. Sometimes misspelled as sturgon.
White sturgeon are the largest freshwater fish in North America
and can weigh over 1,500 pounds, be 20 feet in length, and live for over
100 years. Anadromous white sturgeon most commonly move into large
rivers in early spring, and spawn May through June.
White sturgeon are tough fighters -- so make sure you are
ready to do battle. Many days we will catch and release over 50 fish. If your lucky
enough to be here on a retention date you will quickly become a coinsure
of the best eating fish there is. If you like Halibut its a sure thing
you'll love Sturgeon.
A significant economic and cultural resource throughout the Northwest,
white sturgeon recently became a popular target fishery with major
commercial landings in the Columbia River. In fact,
Columbia River
sturgeon production, with its valuable roe for caviar, is second only to
the former Soviet Union's production. The Columbia River near
Astoria is also the
site of an intense sport fishery, as is the San Joaquin Delta in
California and the Willapa Bay in Washington where guided fishing trips
are popular. The white sturgeon is also an important fish for Native
American fishermen on the Columbia River.
