SEPTEMBER 2007
CO-WINNER
My son's first sturgeon, 65.75" approximate wt. 72 lbs. Martinez, Ca. 6/07.
Last spring my friend and I took my son on his first sturgeon fishing trip. He nailed the only fish of the day! We had been trying different homemade roe cures, all day, and finally my son wanted to try some roe in cured in straight WIZARD EGG CURE. Well here's the result! His bait was in the water 20 minutes! We couldn't seem to hook up at all. Next time, we try WIZARD first!
Ed.note: although this entry was sent in without a name we do have their email address, so hopefully we’ll be able to send them their Pro-Cure gift certificate. Also it seems the general opinion of most California sturgeon anglers is that sturgeon won’t bite on eggs cured in commercial egg cures. Here in Oregon we catch hundreds of incidental sturgeon each year on eggs cured in Pro-Cure and Wizard egg cure while we back bounce for salmon. The message in this story is “don’t get too set in your ways, and always be willing to experiment!”
