Spartan Angling made a big splash today on the Rainy River for their big spring outing. All of the participants had never caught a sturgeon and I looked to a trusted guide Cody Christensen of Full Throttle Guiding to put us on the mark. https://www.rainylakefishguiding.com There were screams, sore arms, tense netting moments, and flat out fun! Fish boated lengths in the 40’s, 50’s and an epic 68.5 inch mark! Every kid boated at least 2 fish shattering personal bests for longest fish ever caught and first sturgeon catches. Epic day, kids won’t forget! Great day to be a Spartan! Did you sign up for Spartan Angling next year?
