Sturgean reported caught in CT

[gdn443]

I got this report from a friend of mine. I do believe him. Hey Greg, Today i went fishing in the river and caught a 50+ Atlantic Sturgeon.Actually I helped catch it.Rich from d26 friend Arnie hooked it.The thing was huge 4 -5 feet long, maybe longer.First I thought it was a shark,but just a Surgeon.Rich snapped a picture when it was next to the boat,but when I went to pull it over the side by the gill the line snapped and it thrusted and got away. There is supposed to be approximately 900 in the river , as was told by the DEP.Wow what a rush, the thing looked so prehistoric,I hope the picture comes out. See Ya For now Bill
