Sidney MT: Paddlefish Season has Begun!

Below is a young Sidney resident who was delighted to get to sit next to the mammoth creature (a kindly gentlemen who caught this monster let the adorable lad hop up and enjoy a view). This particular creature was caught at the Seven Sisters River access in Crane, Mt (10 miles south of Sidney, Mt). In fact, it was caught in the river from the bank!

They are bottom feeders so their mouths open like whales (they have no teeth). No bait is required. You don’t use bait-you snag them with a tri-hook and ‘reel and drag’ until you get one.

Paddlefish are known to live in rivers in the Southern states but also live in Eastern Montana as you can see. According to some folks they taste like swordfish steaks.

Enjoy!
