Sturgeon Rumor

Talked to a friend who at least thinks they are in the know plus I saw it on Ifish (so it must be true )  that Sturgeon retention might be a thing of the past next year in the Willy and from Bonni to the ocean. Only a handful of options left if you want an AOTY Sturgeon next year.   

Plus it looks like you guys might get the barbless hook blues too ...

Can't say that I'd be too surprised if it's true.  That's where things have been trending.  The part about the Big C is pretty nuts though.

They're talking about going barbless for salmon on the big C.

Does that mean catch and release Sturgeon will be banned, too?

There is the potential that retention will go away, but I there should still be c&r.
