Sturgeon Fishing Arrives!

Mr. Muskie Charters is now going to offer Sturgeon fishing trips for September and October! We will be running these trips in the north channel and St. Clair River in our 18 foot Lund. These trips will be 4 hours in the evenings from approx. 5 – 9 p.m. They will accommodate a max of 3 people. The cost on these trips is $500.00. These prehistoric giants are the largest fresh water fish in all the great lakes measuring up to 70 inches and weighing over 200 pounds! They can be up to 100 years old. We have a 3 to 5 fish average during these trips and have boated as many as 6 of these monsters in 1 trip. This is a true battle as well as a test of strength between the fish and the angler. Fighting these massive fish can take up to 45 minutes! These trips will be guided by Keith who is a renowned expert in fishing for these Sturgeon and he has mastered the techniques needed to catch and land these massive prehistoric monsters. He has worked at refining his methods for fishing the Sturgeon as well as getting their seasonal movements down to a science. This will ensure you the best chance at landing one of these lake monsters which are a fish of a lifetime! These trips are going to be very relaxing and enjoyable as they will start before the sun sets and go into night a bit too. You will be able to enjoy the evening and the sun setting. However when the Sturgeon strike be ready for hands on action as well as hands on helping boating, measuring and reviving these fish. We will be practicing Catch and Release with all of the Sturgeon as we do with the Muskies, however if you get one of these trophy fish and would like to get a mount done we will get all the data and pictures for you to get a fiberglass replica. You can expect to have some hands on time viewing and handling these fish as we have made a special XL live well for the Sturgeon to revive before taking your pictures and being released back into the water.
