life of a Sturgeon!

by Marvin on Nov.15, 2009, under Sturgeon

Columbia river SturgeonWhite sturgeon spawn many times in their lives. As they age, the females spawn less often, but produce more eggs in each spawning. In the late spring or early summer, they congregate in areas of rivers with a heavy current, gravel bottom, and a water temperature of 58 °F to 66 °F (14 °C to 19 °C). The fish broadcast spawn in these areas, with males releasing sperm as the outnumbered females release anywhere from 100,000 to a million eggs. The fertilized eggs then sink and adhere to the gravel at the bottom. The eggs are brown in color and will hatch in about a week, depending on water temperature. Female white sturgeon do not spawn every year.

Sturgeon fishing june 13th on the Columbia

by Marvin on Jun.14, 2009, under Columbia River, Fishing Guide, Sturgeon

Today we were fishing on the Columbia river below Bonneville dam. I met my clients at 6:15 am.

I decided not too fish for shad today because shad fishing has been kinda slow and I had enough from the night before.

shad fishing on the columbia river

by Marvin on May.16, 2009, under Columbia River, Fishing Guide, General, Salmon, Sandy River, Sturgeon, Walleye, Willamette

Columbia river has a ton of shad go over the dam each year.
even if you are a pro fishermen you still will have a blast catching shad on the columbia river.
Shad fishing is gteat for kids there is lot’s of action and they are a great fighting fish.
I like to fish in about 10 to 15 feet of fast moving water.
I use a dick night spon i like sliver and green, dont think it realy maters.
Then after you have caught you shad it is time for fun. If you are up to a fight of a lifetime. put the shad on hole and wate for the big sturgeon. then hold on tight.
I would love to here some fish story so please get bak to me.
Or call Marvin’s Guide Service today
