Sunday stills, Fins, Feathers and Fur....

Mine came out in Fur, Feathers and Fins order LOL This first pic is Luxor and Dublin together, as in Fur. This picture is from Luxors Graduation, which my post next week will tell that story!



This next pic is of the beautiful Annas Hummingbird that was around all summer and my representative for
Feathers....
And Fins!!! Big Fins!!! Some of the last Sturgeon that Hubby caught out of the Columbia River, they all are over 42 inches long.

    I always enjoy seeing pics of Luxor and Dublin, too. And the hummingbird is quite a capture with all the movement they make. You did good!

  6. Lisa, I dont remember if Hubby caught these himself, probably one of them.
    dibear, yes sturgeon get huge, we have caught them from little tiny 8-10 inchers up to the biggest Hubby has brought to the boat was over 10 feet long!!!! Yes 10 feet. She went from the windshield to the transom in our 18 ft long boat!
    chloe, lol actually sturgeon are not slimey at all, they have skin like a shark, kinda rought, and those spins down the sides and top are very sharp in the young ones, the older ones 6 ft or so wear them down to nubs.
    thanks Heart of Texas and Ed, I had to search for that fish picture LOL

  11. NuzzMuzz, those "little" one take 10 minutes or so to bring in sometimes. The really big "oversize" ones as they are called, over 6 foot, can take 20 minutes to a couple hours to bring up to the boat.

    Thanks Ebie!

    Linda, Yeah I dont remember there being fish this big in Colorado either lol, if there was any water left in the Colorado river??? Sturgeon are an ocean going fish.

    Violetsky, my husband fillets them out and we eat them or smoke them.
    they have a wonderful firm white big flaky meat, very mild. They are prehistoric, they havnt changed in thousands of years.

    Oh man this is making me want to go catch some sturgeon!!! They are fun to catch, and good to eat!
