Who will be out Spearing Sturgeon Tomorrow?


 

 
Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) •                                                 

Largest lake sturgeon ever captured during spawning assessments on the Wolf River, Winnebago System, Wisconsin, 1950-2012; 87.5 inches total length, approximately 240 pounds, partially spawned out female; 10 April 2012 at the Shawano Paper Mill Dam spawning site. This fish was an estimated 125 years old and to date, has not been speared. That means it was born in 1887 when Grover Cleveland was president.
