    After Clean Water Act regulations started in the 1970s and significantly improved water quality, the Wisconsin and Minnesota DNRs started a stocking program in 1983 to re-establish a spawning sturgeon population on the river, which forms the border between the two states, says Schram, who played an instrumental role in starting the sturgeon restoration program.

    Lord Love the Clean Water Act!!

    Good stuff. I read a similar article by the mndnr on the St. Louis river.

    Did it say anywhere on that website when the sturgeon season opens on the St. Croix?

    I’ll be really impressed when after a rain I can tie a line to a stick, with a clothespin on the other end, and catch sturgeon in the gutter.
