    In both cases…of the sturgeon and myself…you are correct Whatsa.

    It’s more pointed.

    I saw them too, but I’m pretty sure the fish was caught a couple of weeks ago as the pic was on the baitshop counter when I was up over the weekend of the 16th.

    What the…?

    That’s it, I’m making a list of all these off the wall records.

    I probably caught three or four bigger than that last fall walleye fishing on the Minnesota

    That record just might fall this year

    Dtro.. I am pretty certain they cant be kept in the MN river. I hve caught/seen some really big ones from the MN river too(caught and released).

    On May 31, 2007 around 7:00 pm I caught a 36 inches long Shovelnose Sturgeon with my 7 foot St. Croix rod, Abu Garcia Record reel, 50 lb Whiplash line and 0/3 Gamakatsu hook full of night crawlers. After weighing at the Everets Resort, my husband and I knew that I had probably caught the MN State Record. The fish was then taken to Joe’s Sporting Goods where their scale certified it at 5 lb 9 oz. The next step was to complete an application at the DNR and have the fish positively identify.The workers at the DNR were very helpful and friendly.
    After a week and a half I received a letter of confirmation from the DNR that I had caught the New MN State Record Shovelnose Sturgeon. WOW! COOL!
