Live Bait Fishing Strategies

Comments Off on Live Bait Fishing Strategies

Surprise Shovelnose

Comments Off on Surprise Shovelnose

window.document.getElementById(‘post-9636’).parentNode.className += ‘ adhesive_post’;This past fall FWP biologists sampling fish on the Tiber Reservoir found a very uncommon fish for that water in the gill net—a shovelnose sturgeon.
Because there has never been any evidence of the shovelnose reproducing in the Marias River above Tiber, and only about a dozen adult sturgeon have been found in Tiber since netting began in 1973, this fish is likely a relic of the Marias River before it was impounded 51 years ago.
