As we move into September, we get into my favorite time of the year... Sturgeon Season! Any week now I'll be starting my regular weekend outings to the Kennebecasis River to fish for not only sturgeon but also the odd huge striped bass. The fishing for sturgeon is also great in the Spring as the river first thaws, but that season only lasts for a few weeks. We have a few months to look forward to here now!
Last year I had the pleasure of guiding groups of eager anglers, young and old, out on the river every single weekend through the Fall as they searched for their first dinosaurs. There were only a few days where the anglers didn't land fish, and that was typically on days we ran into poor weather. But for the vast majority of people who came out, several sturgeon, sometimes exceeding 4 feet in length, were landed!
Last year in August, one of the first sturgeon was caught by 10 year old John as seen in this video. It was fantastic to be able to watch this young man handle himself like a experienced pro in catching his first sturgeon. Hopefully I'll be able to help a few more young anglers do the same thing this year!
Here are a few more pictures of some of the sturgeon that were caught last year by my guided fishing clients. If this is an adventure which you would like to try, or if you know someone who may like to do it, please consider contacting me. Space is limited so best to book early, already nearly half of my Fall is booked up.
I will provide a top of the line kayak, all the fishing gear necessary, life jackets,...etc. You just need to show up, dressed appropriately for the weather (ideally with a waterproof outer layer) and be ready to have fun. You don't even need a fishing license as we operate in tidal waters!
The price for this adventure is just $100 per person for a half day (about 4 hours on the water) or $175 for a full day (about 8 hours on the water). You cannot get this type of entertainment for that price anywhere else!
Also, at no extra charge, I will bring a couple of GoPro cameras as well as a quality Nikon camera to capture video and stills so that you have footage to share the memories with others!
So contact me today at 506-650-0395 or joetilley76@hotmail.com and book your guided kayak fishing adventure for shortnose sturgeon today!
