Annual Sturgeon Kayak fishing event, Willamette River, this weekend.

Post by The Quadfather » Sun Dec 16, 2018 9:05 pm

I just got back from a sort of Kayak flash mob Sturgeon fishing event on the Willamette River, in Portland.

Just had to say this is one super fun thing to get into, and I only caught one sturgeon actually. But many people caught MULTIPLE.

I got such a crack-up out of this one Australian guy..
I was all bent over tying hooks or something, I hear something said, then this dude rolls up in a kayak, and says something like, “Eh, mate.. you want a hot dog?” Total Aussie accent, anyways..
I’m thinking, I brought 5 kinds of bait and the guy wants me to use a hot dog??

Then I look up, and he slides by in his kayak, with a freakin’ Weber grill on an outrigger setup. He’s grillin’ dogs on the water and handing to anglers!
Now that’s camaraderie!

Both "sturgeon kayak fishing" and "charcoal kayak grilling" sound hilarious to see! The sport of sturgeon fishing from a kayak sounds kinda like it combines water skiing and fishing skills!
