I am back in my boat in the sturgeon hole - idahoron - 03-09-2014 Boy was it a great day to be back in my boat. I got to sugar cube creek before daylight and it was 31 degrees. I got ready and waited for the sun to come up both for warmth and navigation. I haven't went fishing since October. I got into the hole and dropped my rigs. Two hours later I get a hook up and man that fish was strong. It towed me from one side to the other and then all of a sudden it was gone. I guess I didn't set the hook hard enough. So I took the time then and sharpened my hooks and went back at it. 3 and a half hours later I get another hook up. This time I set the hook hard and set it again just to be sure. A half an hour later I got my fist look at it, and shew was a big old girl. She went back down and I had to haul her back to the top. I got her on my lap and she was as long as my rod 7 foot. She beat the crap out of me. Well I went back to the same place and 30 minuted later I am hooked up again. This one was between 5 and 6 foot but it felt like a ton because I was still whipped from the last one. In all it was a great day.

I have handled a lot of fish there but it amazes me to find some I have not been acquainted with.

[signature] Re: [flygoddess] I am back in my boat in the sturgeon hole - idahoron - 03-09-2014 No I still have it. I use it every where else just not this hole. This hole is way to hard to get it in there with the water level as low as it is. Ron [signature] Re: [idahoron] I am back in my boat in the sturgeon hole - flygoddess - 03-09-2014 Awesome, thanks. I just noticed you hardly used it last year (IN your pictures) so I had to ask. It is a 10'er right? How long is this Outcast you are using?

Any chance you can direct me to a Pontoon friendly spot to spend a few hours? Thanks in advance for any info. [signature] Re: [flygoddess] I am back in my boat in the sturgeon hole - idahoron - 03-11-2014 Heck YA!! There is a hole not far from there. I will PM you.

[signature] Re: [flygoddess] I am back in my boat in the sturgeon hole - idahoron - 03-11-2014 Sorry I didn't see this post. I used my Steelheader a ton last year. I did a 4 day trip for cats, and probably 10 to 12 days for sturgeon and one day for Walleye. Ya the steelheader is 10 foot the Sportsman is 9.
