    Will the sturgeon still be actively feeding through next weekend, or do they start slowing down soon? Don’t know a whole lot about when they actually spawn and their habits. The catch and release season starts up again and runs through the 15th and then closes totaly through june i believe. I got the itch again in case u can’t tell. I don’t know how im gonna make it until next spring. Might have to give the st. croix a try sometime maybe. Any info at all would be appreciated.

    Thinking about heading back up for a day when we go to Red for the eye opener.

    Thanks

    There’s a good sturgeon bite through out the year. Of course when they all have the urge to head into the river for thier thing…as it is now…it’s better.

    I’ll be able to tell you better how the bite is after this weekend. When James asked me to go back up, my mouth said YES! before I could even think about it!

    Here’s the St Croix dates…(I can’t wait that long!)
