Made a sturgeon run with Brian yesterday. We were fishing with four rods and we hooked fish on three of the rods. The lines became tangled and we were only able to land one of the sturgeons. The other two sturgeons were hung up in the rocks and we had no choice but to break the lines. A short time later I hooked a fish and while reeling it in it felt kind of different. When I got the fish to the boat, I found that I actually had two fish. I had snagged, in the eye of a pyramid weight the two fish that we had lost earlier (one at ~36" and the other at ~66"). Apparently, the two that broke off were tangled together and I was fortunate to bring them both in. I was grateful to be able to release them, because there is good chance that they both would have died. We decided it was best to just fish with two rods, from then on. It was crazy the number of bites that we both missed. Fun day and lots of nice sturgeon caught with Brian.
