I have never fished for Sturgeon, but have been told it was fun. So this year i want to go catch my first one.... Where are some places where people have had great success catching Sturgeon, and would be a great place to land my first one?

Sturgeon alley on the Kennebecasis River is the place most often identified as the best spot. Stugeon Alley is basically near where the Hammond River pours into the Kennebecasis.

Ok, Thanks BobD

The mouth of the Hammond is where we go.

I'd be up for doing a Sturgeon hunt this weekend at Sturgeon Alley in canoe if I had someone to join me. Not looking to try it solo, at least not the first time. I've got the canoe, and a suitable rod for myself, you would just need your rod, some snacks and a couple arms to help paddle! PM me if your interested!

Hi Joe, I plan to be at the mouth of the Hammond throughout the weekend in my white and green "Legend". If you see me, don't hesitate to pop over and say hi.

Hey Pete,

If I get enough energy to paddle out and back solo or find a partner I'll look for you. Otherwise I'll try some other areas and hunt sturgeon another time.

Cheers,
joe

Hows is Sturgeon best fished, Chunk of night crawlers right on bottom? or up a bit? If only every caught one by fluke with a plastic eel while fishing strippers.. hooked it in the tail.. But if love to go target them aswell.

4 boats on Sturgeon alley this morning. between us all I think there was just a handful of perch and one small catfish. On the ride back to meenan's cove beach I seen one jump close to the red marker where you turn down towards hampton or back towards meenans cove beach.

The water is crazy high. The dock at meenan's cove beach is completely submerged. Once the water comes down things should start to pick up... I hope.

Homebrew - did you see the DFO & RCMP boats up that way towards Hammond? I saw that they had launched from Meenans Saturday morning.

 

[Homebrew76]

We passed them on Meenan's Cove road on our drive back home sometime around 12:30 that afternoon. They probably would have been launched off Meenan's Cove beach launch shortly thereafter. We were wondering if they were going to be doing training exercises or actually doing license/registration checks and such.

Hi guys. My name is Josh. I know this is an old thread, but if you guys are still fishing this area then would love a fishing buddy with some knowledge. I put in almost every Saturday morning in Hampton. Or maybe just insight on technique/bait. I’ve been trying handful of worms off the bottom and get nothing but catfish, bass ect.
