I will also state how it's unlikely for a sturgeon to be up past the fish ladder.
But who knows. That raritan is a crazy place
yeah, only problem is they were stocked in a couple rivers in western Pa, and a couple in western NY, FAR from the Delaware... Not sure how it could have even made it into the Delaware, let alone the Raritan, but as I said, who knows??.. These fish/ wild animals do what THEY want to do, NOT what we humans "expect" them to do.. I have no reason to doubt the OP ..

Many years ago I saw a pitch black Mountain Lion right on my property here in NY state, despite the NYS DEC saying they don't exist here. however they ARE spotted on occasion here in the Southern Tier even photographed, despite what the "experts" say... So a Paddlefish in the raritan??.. Just as likely as a Mountain Lion in NY state I suppose ......bob
