#CatchKing My dad's back yard sits on the deepest hole in the entire Snake River in Pine City MN and the fishing there is amazing. Pretty much every type of fish available in those waters are gathered in or around the 30 ft deep hole and his back yard sits right on the section of the river that feeds directly into it. Wade fishing for sturgeon right at the mouth is absolutely amazing. All you need is a simple Carolina rig with a small circle hook, nightcrawler and a little bit of time and you're bound to catch a sturgeon. If a sturgeon doesn't get it something else will. Skunked? This hole has never heard of her! 😆 This was the biggest we caught the 2 weeks I was there. After a couple of popped lines during some big battles we decided to go with a little heavier braid and leader. Luckily it paid off. My dad was able to land this 58-60 inch sturgeon after fighting it for about 15 minutes! One of my favorite fishing memories with my dad ever and that says a lot because I have a ton of them. Gear used was a KastKing Megatron 6k + 8ft Progressive Glass rod.

Catching these on 6LB. monofilament line is intense in the river. Got a bit wet but it was worth it for the constant action.

only catch of the night and it was tasty
