Sturgeon Spawn 2014 - Shawano, WI

Sturgeon Spawn 2014 on the Wolf River in Shawano, WI. WDNR employees catch, tag and record data on Sturgeon that make the annual spawning run from Lake Winnebago up to the Dam in Shawano. This video catches the efforts of one of the employe...es that dove into the 45 degree water to catch the Sturgeon by hand and help nodge them into the large nets to be taken to the processing area. I watched him for several hours, so he had to be cold and tired. (WCSFO video - John Durben)
