What you are watching.
Keeper and oversize sturgeon
Many of our clips show sturgeon. A keeper is a fish you can hold for the photo; an oversize sturgeon is too big to keep and is released at the boat, so the clip shows it in the water.
Rigging and technique
The how-to clips show the tackle we run on salmon trips: flashers, Kwik Fish, downriggers and soft beads. Rods and tackle are included on every trip, so you do not need to buy any of it.
