The sturgeon were definitely feeding over the weekend. We targeted mid-river flats in the 20-30' depth. We were using fresh shad on VMC circle hooks size 5/0 and larger. With minimal current, 3 ounce flat sinkers kept the bait on the bottom. Fish ranged in size from 36" to 60". There were some decent channel cats mixed in. The key was keeping the hook filled with shad.

My buddy and I got out on the Saint Croix today. The smallmouth were on points and drop offs. We used wacky rigged Senkos. Green pumpkin black flake and pumpkin black flake both worked.
