Christopher Begley, from Rogersville, Tennessee, recently caught a lake sturgeon that was more than 5 feet long.
"BIG FISH ALERT!" wildlife officials wrote on Facebook. "Wildlife Sgt. Brent Harrison sent this photo of angler Christopher Begley of Rogersville with a lake sturgeon he caught from the Horton Ford bridge on the Clinch River above Kyle's Ford." According to the post, Begley was using "cut suckers" for catfish bait. Instead, he reeled in the 61.5-inch (over 5 feet) sturgeon -- with the help of his fiancée, Kathy Trent, officials wrote on Facebook.More Related News
