VIDEO: Rookie sturgeon fishing

However, today we follow him on a quest to the Pacific Northwest.

Captain Wiggins braves the cold and wet in pursuit of sturgeon.

These fish are perhaps most famous for producing caviar.

They are also not the worst fighting fish in the world.

Sturgeon can grow as long as 5.5 metres.

Sturgeon will not be an option when the Sportswave team of Andre Bloem and Alain Tardin hit the waves this Friday.

We will be up against the team from GoFish magazine and the KZN Fishing Freaks.

Sportswave and GoFish will be mounting jetskis, while the Freaks will rely on paddle power.

We are hoping to catch one of the wahoo currently lurking near the cargo ships off Umhlanga...

Meanwhile, we give you Captain Wiggins and his debut sturgeon.
