The Rainy

[ThunderLund78]

Had my first trip to the rainy with a couple of buddies for some sturgeon fishing. I had heard a lot but had no idea what to expect. It was an incredible time, despite the mostly "rainy" weather--go figure. Just cell phone pics but a couple of fun shots from the trip:

Dawn on day #1, looked like it as going to be beautiful:

About an hour after the first pic was taken

But the rain did let up enough for some good fishing. Caught my fist sturgeon which also happens to be the biggest fish I've ever caught. 57"! I'll be going back as soon as I can to try and get a bigger one.

That's a big sturg! Congrats! I too got soaked sturgeon fishing this weekend, but on a different river...

Glad your first trip was a success! I am up on Rainy Lake this week, been coming up here over 15 years and it never ceases to amaze!
