An entertaining video to be sure, but also rather irresponsible,  I feel.
Too much chance of leaving a sturgeon dragging around broken off gear, or just the whole Barbie combo, that could end up leading to the fish's demise. Also,  not supposed to be taking em out of the water.
A day without fishing probably wouldn't kill me,
but why risk it?

Bluewrx02 and I have successfully caught dinos with the Barbie rod.  Fun as it gets! 

This was a 45" caught at the mouth of the Deschutes.
