Fantastic stuff! The Proclaimers are a nice touch, too. Really beautiful fish, great setting. Take the whiskers off those guys and you'd swear they were sharks...

Really great stuff, and I mirror what both littlen and Matt said. I would love to catch a sturgeon of any kind someday. I bet they are a blast!

You win the internet today.  A fabulous post, and done to the Proclaimers...  I'm speechless, I am without speech!

Glad you enjoyed the pictures and the song parody :)

That song was stuck in my head on the drive to New Brunswick...and it is still stuck in my head...

 

Misery loves company, hahaha!
