Guys, get yourself the amazing Trifecta Killer surf rod from Terra Firma Tackle terrafirmatackle.com/collections/fishing-rods/products/trifecta-killer-surf-and-light-tackle-rods-built-to-order

[@PsychicPsychToad]

That rod looked like a lot of fun!

[@alansloan88]

Two fish were on a blind date. The lady fish asked the guy fish what he does for a living. He said I do operations at the hospital. She said oh, you must be a Sturgeon...😊

[@wildlifefishingshow]

Love a good dad joke

[@kevinchristensen84]

Two replies: first, the obligatory "Oh, ALAN! 🙄🙄😪😪" and the second: Your joke didn't make me guffaw out loud, but it DID make me smile bigger than usual, so it's NOT that bad. You shared it with me, and the chat, to brighten our day, and I appreciate that. What, you were expecting insults? Mmmmm, not really my thing; hope you're not disappointed. 😁😁😄😄

[@BradyBigfooter]

Amazing catch, man!! I loved getting to see underwater from the Sturgeon's point of view!! Super interesting and lots of fun!!

[@wildlifefishingshow]

Yeah, I wish I had just decided to leave the camera as it were.

[@tadhghayden8440]

That fish moved there in the discussion of the tackle...cause he recognised the shape of the rod...fish can be smart.. That's a super any fish anywhere rod!

[@wildlifefishingshow]

Fish are so much smarter than people think

[@insolentstickleback3266]

That water is beautiful, clear with green plants on the substrate, just remarkable! I know I have shared the story before of me stepping on a Sturgeon thinking it was a log, scared the living piss out of me! I am near the North Santiam river in Oregon, by a small town called Jefferson, I remember seeing an old photograph of a 18 foot? Sturgeon being yarded out of the river here by Mules, 1868 or so.

[@kevinchristensen84]

Present company obviously excepted, I would kill to see that old photo. Not a human or mammal heavier than 3 oz, but any number of mosquitoes, horseflies, etc. Next time I'm down Oregon way, I'm going to stop in Jefferson; I'm intrigued. Oh, btw, I have several sticklebacks in my aquarium. Cool little fish, cool channel name. 😎

[@wildlifefishingshow]

18 foot sturgeon would be astounding to see

[@Flahmas]

Those sturgeon are something else when it comes to power. What a fish and glad we got to see some underwater footage regardless if it didn't move much after such a long fight. Great video as always and can't wait for the next one!

[@wildlifefishingshow]

It was a really cool fish to see in clear water

[@felipeluna9341]

Sturgeon is like, “Darn Aliens abducted me and installed their Alien tech on me again…”

[@wildlifefishingshow]

It's like Fire In The Sky

[@illuminatidestroyerbear2231]

I kept expecting that rod to snap and it never did, what a beast. Sturgeon are beautiful animals, that looked like a good time.👊

[@wildlifefishingshow]

That rod is no joke. It was a great time. Since I wanted to get the camera on as fast as possible, I didn't really get to show how big that fish was. 6' 9" makes it one of the largest fish I've caught

[@joshwagner8468]

Awesome channel Payton. Always getting better and better

[@wildlifefishingshow]

Many thanks

Amazing to see those Sturgeons just sitting there, right in front of you! 👏🏻👏🏻

what convetional ropd and reels do you use

[@wildlifefishingshow]

Depends on what I'm fishing for

[@williamandrews4251]

I bet that Sturgeon got tired being caught again. For her sake you didn't land her twice and the camera fell off.Mistakes sometimes happen.Great videos.

Thanks, man

[@magsman448]

The first time I saw a video of someone landing one of these huge fish I.was blown away. Now I've seen a few videos of what seems to be the same fish being caught time after time and now seeing that it's no more than a two foot deep dead end stream just saddens me seeing the majestic creatures being dragged from pillar to post, same with the alligator gar hook em and drag them in they don't seem to put up much fight. Again just dragging in a huge lump. Funny how opinions can change just like that.

[@wildlifefishingshow]

This stream is over 8 feet deep. The fight you saw in this video is no different than any other fight you've seen before, you just feel different being able to see the fish. And don't presume to tell me what it's like hanging on to a 300lb alligator gar, a 150lb sturgeon, a 150lb ray, a 200lb shark, etc. It always looks easy to those who haven't done it.

[@magsman448]

@@wildlifefishingshow bro I totally enjoy your videos and the ethics you have for fishing. You’re one of a few fishing channels I watch. I didn’t mean to imply these things are easy to catch. It was just the fact these huge fish being in a small, relatively shallow and crystal clear waterway had no sporting element to it. You knew where they were and they were pretty much cornered. I’m just being soft mate ‘I just saw a family of fish with one being dragged away! Just my opinion and I just felt like letting you know that’s all!

[@markusfranz331]

If the sturgeon had more space to go no chance to hold him with this tackle

Almost like we had a plan

I believe there are different catch and release laws in different states. I know you can eat small ones in certain states, but I can't remember which.

Intereseting , beautifull annimals who shouldend be haunted ! ! ! ! ! they would grow much more on a big lake and bread over there ! Like this it is easy to catch them... I like this fish even more then alligator gar ! Ad home I have a pound ( 40.000 gallons ) with koi and 1 sturgeon , and my sturgeon commes to me and eats food out of my hands. You can make them verry friendly to humans . Sturgeons are as good as blind , but he knows it is me on my footsteps . If he hears me, he commes to the surface to asks for food.
