    Sturgeon are in trouble mostly in European rivers due to overfishing and using them for caviar. Interestingly, it used to be custom for fishermen in Britain to offer sturgeon they'd caught to the Royal family. Amazing work, as ever

      The columbia river system in b.c. and Washington used to have criticaly low amounts of sturgeon but the last 5 years or so you can no longer really bottom fish for trout and whitefish because all you catch is 3 foot sturgeon. Its a good sign and hopefully my kids can fish them in 15 years when numbers are good to open up catch n release

    This might be too crazy, but you could try a Stingray lure - I think the only way would be to have a 3-piece lure with a flat oval centre piece and two semi-circle ‘wings’ either side. Might not be possible but would be very interesting :)

    Here in germany, specifically in Bavaria we used to have native stergeons (sterlet) which you can no longer find in our river systems in (bavaria)there are still sturgeon in germany, but usually by the larger citys where most our main rivers pass through. But finding them close to the size yall have em, would be a 1 in every 20-30 years catch. Great build! Really enjoyed it

    most members of the Acipenser genus are endangered which includes the bulk of the sturgeon, the shovelnose is not a member of that genus however another species in its genus called the Pallid Sturgeon is endangered in the U.S. and the caviar is going to be from species of the acipenser genus so dont try any roe you get from a shovelnose. Great video as usual Nate

    • @coldasthetruenorth1607
      @coldasthetruenorth1607 Год назад +1

      to add to this, there are species of predatory sturgeon that have much larger mouths fixated towards the front of their heads, shovelnose are not one of those species and thats why they have the mouths on the bottom, like most of the "smaller sturgeon" they feed on scraps of animal material and insect larvae. the ones that are are mostly predatory would be from the Huso genus which is also the largest

    Had an interesting idea for a bait today. It's not the first time someone has made something like this, but the bait is a fish (probably large mouth bass) chasing another smaller fish. I've seen some vintage baits that did this out of one block of wood, but I think it would be cool to have two separate baits connected by a leader. I realize you made a similar bait before (the chatter buddy), but if done right, you might be able to get other bass to follow it like they do when one is trying to eat. The front fish would esetualy have no action, but the chasing fish could have a joint and possibly have a great action.

    Extra information because I can!
    Kaviar is specifically underdeveloped eggs, so it's not what comes out on its own, as those eggs are ready to be laid. To harvest the kaviar, the fish is caught and killed, the eggs cut out. This is why they are so heavily overfished in certain areas, mostly europe and asia. The slow reproduction rate with 20 years to mature and the target on egg laying females is what is putting them under.
    Many fish, including the sturgeon, can force air trough their gills to get some oxygen. Gills can get their oxygen from the air so long as the gills are wet enough, so that the oxygen in the air can exchange with the moisture from which the gills pull it. It's beneficial to do so if there's not enough oxygen in the water.
    Another beautiful lure, I always remain amazed at the work you do. The scutes look phenomenal!
