The largest fish of the day was the lone adult female that was harvested from the Upriver Lakes. That fish was 105.6 pounds, 69.0 inches and registered at Critter’s by Kevin Shady. The largest fish registered on Lake Winnebago today was also 69.0 inches. Mark Livingstone registered his 69 inch sturgeon (91.4 pounds) at Payne’s Point. I’ve included photos of both fish in today’s report.
Good luck to all of the spearers who are still on the hunt for a lake sturgeon this season! |
