Tacking across the river last weekend and almost ran over a fish twice the size of my board! I can see the headlines now: Stugeon washes ashore with kite lines hanging out of mouth.

I didn't know those huge ass fish actually breached like a freaking whale!

I have seen an abnormal amount of fish this year.

It's probably because I'm a little less of a kook so I'm not staring at my kite anymore Embarassed Embarassed Embarassed

there's a video of a sturgeon jumping up and hitting a windsurfers mast at the hatch somewhere on the internet, I can't find it though.
