Talk about beginner's luck. On his first time fishing for sturgeon, Cyril Paquin caught one of the two biggest fish on record for the Fraser River. "This is the dream catch for every sturgeon angler," said Marc Laynes, the fishing guide on the boat that made the catch on Wednesday morning. The sturgeon they caught was about 3.4 metres long, and they estimate it weighed 360 kilograms and was 120 years old, he said. The biggest fish caught in the Fraser since records began in 1999 was also 3.4 metres, caught in 2003.
