CJ Sturgeon report - elkmagnet - 08-07-2012

We put about 16hr in sturgeon fishing above cj without one bite. We tried fresh cut bait worms pickled herring and shrimp, nothing. we didnt see any of the other boats get a fish so atleast it wasnt just us.
We did manage to catch a few cats some perch and alot of bass thank goodness for our 2 pole permits. One cat I will try to post a pic of it may be a small flathead. All I can say is go below the dam.

IMHO - In the heat of the summer they don't start biting till an hour or two after dark - during the day they just don't tend to put on the feed bag when the temps are above 90

I'm glad you posted this report. I was planning on a 14 hr trip tonight now I'm rethinking it.

Just fish the river below the dam.

I've only fished the area in Scout Park directly below the dam. I always seem to loose more hardware than its worth. Do you know any other areas nearby?

Hey man, sorry you didn't hook into any. We went out on Sunday and boated 6... all in the middle of the day. Of course, we were below the dam. We landed a 7'1" beauty... got some great pictures...I put a pic of the big ol' girl in the post. If I can get the guy I went with to not be lazy and send me some actual pics I'll post up a nice report.

Sorry again you didn't get into them.

At least the other boats weren't catching anything- I usually start acting like my 2 year old when i see other people catching fish while I'm staring at my pole. Hope you get into them soon. Time to put a jet pump on that bass boat of yours hahaha
