"The lower Columbia River that divides Oregon and Washington
States has the best Sturgeon fishing in the world. It's an
experience you won't forget!
...May thru June the big oversize fish come in following the
Shad. The thrill of a lifetime to get an 8' to 11' foot fish
on the end of your line."

About Sturgeon
In salt water, sturgeon range from Ensanada, Mexico to the
Gulf of Alaska. The larger river systems on the west coast
host spawning runs. The Columbia-Williamette, the
Sacramento-San Joaquin, and the Umpqua are the most notable.
Smaller populations can be found in the Russian, Klamath,
Rogue and Coquille systems. Populations with access to the
sea may or may not migrate and there are landlocked sturgeon
in the Columbia River and Shasta Lake.
Sturgeon can live to be 100 years old and are the largest
fresh water fish in North America. The sportfishing record
fish was caught in The Dalles, Oregon and weighed 900
pounds. All the west coast states have bracketed length
requirements for fish taken. For Oregon and California fish
that are 4 to 6 feet in length are allowed to be kept. Check
the Regulations!
A female sturgeon takes at least 11 years to mature, males
somewhat less. Sturgeon do not spawn every year. Spawning
takes place during the spring and the fish prefer rocky or
gravel bottoms. Up to 5,000,000 eggs are released into the
river followed by the milt. The sticky eggs adhere to the
bottom where they hatch within 2 weeks.
