Kip said that this was the year he would cross catching a sturgeon off his bucket list, so we did just that! Went three for 4 last night and 2 for three this morning when a 50’ish inch fish jumped at the back of the boat and threw the hook. We crossed a wide array of sizes off during our outings. Now Kip only needs a super jumbo!
Thought I’d be off the water for about 5 days. Jokes on me! When your daughters say they want to try and catch a sturgeon, you get them up early and hit the road. Back at it!
Success! These fish have a ten minute warning and we are gone! 🤣🤣🤣
Had to get Dakota out for one more rip before he headed west for some ducks. We ground it out and managed a 5 pack. 67x28 57 56 70x23 64x23 with a tag Two more gratitude trips to go and that’s a wrap for me. James Smith, brother you got one on me next season for sending such a good dude my way. As always, gratitude is the attitude!
Following a fantastic week of fishing in balmy conditions, we encountered the inevitable arrival of a cold front. As expected, the change in weather made for a tough night with a slow bite. However, in the world of angling, challenges like these are character-building experiences. Undeterred, we persisted, adjusting our tactics by varying depths until we finally hooked a catch. True to the durability of MAD KATZ rods, which flex but never snap, we mirrored their resilience, refusing to succumb to the elements.

What an incredible experience! I've been on numerous charters, yet none have surpassed this one. While landing a couple of colossal Sturgeon was thrilling, it was Capt Rick who truly made the trip unforgettable. His extensive expertise, patience with our inquiries, and evident love for fishing enhanced the journey immensely. Without a doubt, we'll be booking with him again in the future.

Rick is a very knowledgeable and skilled captain and fishermen. My friends and I have booked a yearly sturgeon trip with him and have had a great experience every time. He had great respect for the fish and the environment that he is in and walks you though step by step to make sure you can reel in a monster on your own, and do so safely and successfully. Couldn’t recommend Rockets fishing enough.

Unforgettable experience! Captain Rick went above and beyond to make sure our trip was a success. He scouted for three hours before we arrived to secure a prime spot, and we were already having a great time before the fish even showed up. Thanks to his expertise and adjustments, we landed an 80-pounder, a 90-pounder, and several other species in between. Captain Rick’s hospitality and willingness to share his knowledge made the trip memorable—the fish were just the bonus. Thank you, Captain!

I highly recommend booking a Lake Sturgeon charter with Rocket’s Fishing Adventures. Captain Rick went above and beyond—he arrived early to scout and mark fish, so every minute of our charter was spent fishing. He constantly refreshed baits and fine-tuned the setup to keep us dialed in. His passion for sturgeon fishing made the trip even more enjoyable—he was just as excited as we were with every catch. The boat was comfortable, and the gear was top-quality from start to finish.

I was really impressed by how hard Captain Rich worked to put us on fish. He went the extra mile, even extending the trip beyond the booked time. His effort paid off—we landed three large sturgeon in the final two hours.
