A group of New York fisheries biologists pulled a massive Atlantic sturgeon from the Hudson River in late June.⁠ ⁠ Using live capture nets and operating under a research permit, they caught the 200-plus-pound prehistoric fish near Hyde Park, which is just 80 miles upriver from the Big Apple. The fishing expedition was part of a longer-running sturgeon population assessment in the Hudson River that has been ongoing since 2006.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in profile for the full story 🔗⁠ ⁠ #sturgeon #sturgeonfishing #hudsonriver #newyork #atlanticsturgeon #fishing #fishingtrip #outdoors #nature #outdoorlife⁠ 📷: nysdec⁠ Story by: Bob McNally
