I hooked it in 25' of water I thought I was dropping my dropshot next to a what appeared to be a log. I got bit and set the hook, when it came off the bottom it went straight out to the middle of the lake and sat there. It blacked out my lowrance everytime I got right on top of it. I guessing The way it acted to be a sturgeon, and salmon don't black out your screen in 50' of water, I fought it for probably over 2 hours and finally broke it off.

I don't think sturgeon are known to inhabit Lk Wa or Samm but they did find a dead one in Wa that was about 6 feet long once. I also saw a small one in shallow water once when I was a kid. Too bad you didn't land it Ron. You could be a line class world record holder. :-)
