When was the last time you tangled with a fish that was older than you are? How about the last time you have battled a fish that weighed upward of 100 pounds? If you are like most who live in Minnesota, your answer is never!

Change that. Make this year, the year you do battle with a prehistoric beast. Give yourself the chance to catch your fish of a lifetime.

All are welcome to be a part of the 2007 Spring Sturgeon Get Together to be held the weekend of April 20, 2007 on the Rainy River near Baudette, Minnesota.

Join your FM family in search of the largest fish that swims in Minnesota waters. Fish weighing over 50 pounds are not uncommon, and fish over 100 pounds are possible. From jumps to rod breaking dives to pulling 100+ feet of line and burning drags, sturgeon battle like no other fish in Minnesota!

Bring your heaviest tackle, catfish rods, muskie rods, and even very heavy bass gear will do. Beyond that, all you will need is muscle and some warm clothes.

After a day on the water, join us at Schusters and meet FishingMinnesota Staff and other FM members and friends: putting a face to a posting name is priceless. To sweeten the deal, it’s very affordable, as well, thanks to Schusters who’s opening its doors to FM members for an extremely reasonable price (to be added here shortly). Contact them here Schusters Resort or call 1 (800) 243-2412

I know I wont miss this great event. The sturgeon is one awesome fish to do battle with.

Last year???

Oh you mean last , last year

I know there's few videos from 2006 floating around. Would love to see them

Awesome! I'm really looking forward to attending this event for the first time.

If anyone wants to hook up, let me know. I can fit 4 in the boat, so I could take on 3 passengers.

Awesome!

The weekend of the 20th works great for me. The wife will be in Vegas, so guess where I'll be.

See you all there.

Last year I caught a tagged one. This year I'd love to have one 30+lbs... Ohhhh I can handle it

Brianna caught a tagged one also. This year, she wants to bring along a German exchange student.

I also caught one tagged fish. I sent in for the info on the fish and it was interesting.

Come to think of it, i caught a tagged one also, e-mailed the number and don't recall getting the information about the fish. Guess I'll check into that. We'll be there again, really looking forward to that as well as "Cool Cats"?? We'll have the carbs cleaned this year before we come up! Brent

Darren, it looks like you will both be having a great weekend. If we get a little colder weather we can go out and do some ice fishing.

I won't miss it. Man it was so much fun last year. I have been looking foward to it since I left last year. I would also like to see some of those videos that are out there

Still pumped about this event! I'll have nearly a full boat....bringing 2 of my buddies along. Anyone know if prices have been worked out with Schuster's yet? Wondering if I can call and make a reservation yet? Man am I stoked!

I called today. $20 per person per night.

Awesome! I'll give'em a call.

Thanks!

Papa Grump, Dtro, and Myself have our cabin already. Same one as last year.
