Everyone says something different. What is the best time to sturgeon fish, low tide or high tide? The last couple of times out in the river I have tried both low and high tide and it seemed to better on the low tide. I did not catch a fish but I was getting hits on the low.  The water temp is a lot warmer in the low because of the lack of ocean water cooling it down. It would seem that the sturgeon would more active when the water temp is up. I am fishing only 2 or 3 miles from the ocean so when the tide switches to an incoming the water temp drop quick. I will keep trying till I hook up with one. Any pro's have any advice? How about bait presentation? I'm using sand shrimp in roe netting. ????? Thanks Zac
