Jason Fischer was shocked at what his crew had just caught.
Fischer, a biologist who works with a Michigan-based Fish and Wildlife Service office, was on the water late last month, putting out setlines with hooks to catch and survey the lake sturgeon population in the Detroit River. It was his first setline survey with this three-person crew, and until then his research had focused on egg and larval stages “we’re talking about a fish less than an inch.” ....

Catching The Sturgeon
A three-person crew captured the 240-pound lake sturgeon on April 22 near Grosse Ile, just south of Detroit. The massive fish, which measured nearly 7 feet long, was characterized by the agency as a true-life river giant.
On a long line extending deep into the Detroit River, the massive aquatic species was captured using frozen round goby, tiny, soft-bodied fish that act as tasty snacks for sturgeon, as bait. Using a net, the fishing biologists took about six minutes to get the big fish into their port. ....

Huge sturgeon pulled from Detroit River among largest ever caught; over 100 years old

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service made the announcement on its Facebook page.
âThis real life river monster was tipping the scales at 240 pounds, measuring 6 feet 10 inches long, and a girth of nearly 4 feet,â the post stated. âCaught in the Detroit River, this fish is one of the largest lake sturgeon ever recorded in the U.S.â

Based on its girth and size, biologists assume it to be a female and said she has been roaming the Detroit River and surrounding waters for over 100 years.
As a point of reference, that means the ancient fish caught on April 22 likely was hatched in the Detroit River around 1920, when Detroit became the fourth largest city in America. ....

Biologists reel in a 240-pound fish from the Detroit River that likely hatched a century ago
The lake sturgeon, considered a threatened species in Michigan, has endured a lot – from a boom in commercial fishing that continued into the early 1900s, periods of over-harvesting, and habitat loss.
