All About Sturgeon!
"Sturgeon, often referred to as the “dinosaurs of the deep,” are an ancient fish species that have inhabited the waters of the Rainy River for centuries. With their distinctive elongated, torpedo-like bodies, bony external plates, flattened snouts and a mouth that can be extended from beneath their head, these majestic giants can grow to impressive sizes, making them a prized catch among anglers.
They rely on extensive shallow waters to hunt for food, using their barbels to lightly probe the bottom in search of prey. Their diet consists of insect larvae, various invertebrates, snails, leeches, small mussels, and tiny fish.
Sturgeon are larger than the more common large fish such as northern pike and muskies. Minnesota lake sturgeon stand out among other large freshwater fish both due to their unique characteristics and ecological significance. Unlike many other freshwater species, sturgeon possess a prehistoric allure, with their long bodies and bony plates (called scutes), and distinctive whisker-like barbels near their mouths.
What sets Minnesota sturgeon apart is their remarkable resilience and longevity; these ancient fish can live for decades and grow to impressive sizes, with some individuals exceeding six feet in length and weighing hundreds of pounds.
Moreover, sturgeon play a crucial role in freshwater ecosystems as indicators of environmental health and contributors to nutrient cycling. Their migratory behaviors, spawning rituals, and ability to thrive in diverse habitats make Minnesota-based sturgeon both fascinating subjects for anglers."
