    Their eyes look so innocent. We really need to conserve this species.

      @Kamari Kai thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm trying it out now.
      Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.

    The smaller fish are northern pikeminnow and prickly sculpin. Also a rocky mountain whitefish at 6:14

    Great video! I do a lot of sturgeon fishing near my home river the Willamette in Portland, Oregon. Always wondered what it looked like down there!

    Honestly, I can't really picture sturgeon eating live fish in my head. Everybody says they do, but given the position of their mouths and how slow they seem to move I can't picture them eating any live fish

      Horse and deer don't eat birds or squirrels either but there is the odd ultra rare video of it occurring. I think it's probably the same for the sturgeon... the little fish swim away too fast to get sucked up by the white sturgeon and their down facing mouth, but in the muddy fraser river water maybe the odd little fish doesnt notice or swim away from the sturgeon and gets sucked up.

    That was an awesome video I want to go try fishing for sturgeon. I can't believe I have lived here for so many years and haven't tried the fraser sturgeon yet.

      I know it's super late but sturgeon are really popular to fish for, they live for a very long time and since they are such a large fish you dont get a huge population living in one area, all this means that these fish get caught a lot and look out for the line and sinker and anything that seems off.

    Once again, sturgeon showing why they are so hard to catch. You can have the tastiest of morsels on the hooke, but when they see bulky line and rigging, the jig is up! They know its a trap and act accordingly. Fish are far more intelligent than we give them credit for.

    • @aaronwilde
      @aaronwilde Рік тому

      I wouldnt call it intelligence. Most creatures from bugs to Horses will learn based on positive or negative reinforcement. Sturgeon live a long time and it makes sense that they eventually figure out that when they feel fishing line/hook with the bait that it's not safe to eat.

  • @davebirkbeck9348
    @davebirkbeck9348 5 років тому +1

    Rig would be better with a sliding back lead stopped about 4 foot above the bait as the Sturgeons nose keeps hitting the line and spooking it.

      No idea they’re illegal to keep in the fraser river

    • @illiadmcswain3956
      @illiadmcswain3956 4 роки тому

      It's catch and release, they're pretty much endangered, just like the Alligator Gar.,

      @curtispapineau9645 3 роки тому

      I've caught and ate them from the Columbia river in oregon/Washington they are the nest tasting fish, or maybe even the best meat at all, I've ever tasted

  • @joevette6290

    Do the sturgeon feel the hook and keep spitting it out????

  • @rory251
    @rory251 2 роки тому +1

    These fish are so used to being hooked over and over, thats why they ditch the bait when they sense even the slightest resistance of fishing line or weights. They are very smart creatures

      Not whitefish. Northern pikeminnow.

    • @Coastalfishes
      @Coastalfishes 6 років тому

      Actually after 6:14 in the video a rocky mountain whitefish passes by.

    Sturgeon fishing is illegal in most places as they are endangered and they are a protected species, their species has been around for over 200 million years there are many other fish to go for please leave the sturgeon alone. if not then i hope you get fine,
    {Poaching a sturgeon is punishable by 30 to 180 days in jail, fines from $500 to $2,000, court costs and $1,500 restitution to the state}
    for those in the US idk about Canada

    • @backingboys
      @backingboys 5 років тому +2

      Where they are fishing it is 100% legal to do so.

    • @SalishCascadian
      @SalishCascadian 5 років тому +2

      It is only legal to catch and release sturgeon in the Fraser and in some cases, it is the most practical and ethical way of studying their population size (tagging and such). They are generally endangered species in most places but the local population in the Fraser is large enough to support a catch and release fishery which also helps with their preservation of the species as it spreads awareness and helps fund recovery projects through license sales.

    • @vadim97v
      @vadim97v 5 років тому +1

      For those in the US? All legal to catch and keep sturgeon here in California.

    • @SilverSnowo
      @SilverSnowo 5 років тому

      vadim97v I also said in most places not in all places I'm in New York and it's illegal here as it should be cause their endangered

    • @martindesrocher4528
      @martindesrocher4528 5 років тому +1

      where this is filmed it is legal to catch and release and the fisherman around here are respectful of how they handle them and release them ! this is Canada...there will always be bad apples but for the most part we try to respect nature i think.
