British Columbia fishing guide catches and releases giant 10.6-foot (3.2M), 600-pound (272kg) white sturgeon

The reason why I am posting this is because of a comment I made last year in a now deleted topic about witnessing unexplained phenomena:

I'm jealous. I have never seen a UFO or any strange lights in the sky, even though I have always wanted to. And sadly I have never really experienced any phenomena I couldn't easily explain either... except once. When I was in my teens and visiting some relatives in Kelowna, BC, I saw something strange on Okanagan Lake while we were camping next to it. It was really early in the morning, nobody else from my family was up yet, the water was exceptionally calm, and there weren't any boats on the lake yet (at least that I could see), but suddenly a decent sized wave with a V shaped wake trailing behind it rose up out of nowhere in the middle of the lake. It continued moving in the same direction for a few seconds and then the wave disappeared, but the wake kept traveling across the entire lake.

The only explanations I can think of are either someone was using a submersible and took it close to the surface of the lake for a brief moment (unlikely, especially 25 years ago and that early in the morning), I witnessed some sort of unusual tidal phenomena (e.g. a tidal bore but more narrowly focused and short lived)... or I saw Ogopogo (Canadian Nessie). I'm definitely not one to attribute things to superstitious, mystical, paranormal, or pseudo-scientific reasons, so I suspect it was a probably just a tidal phenomena of some sort, but I still have yet to see an example of any that look similar to what I witnessed... so occasionally I still like to imagine that perhaps I really did see Ogopogo that day. ;)

So after all these years I may finally have an answer to what I witnessed that day... the wake from a giant sturgeon, who I had no idea could get that big! The Fraser river, where the fish in the video was caught, isn't connected to Okanagan Lake but it is just a hop, skip, and jump away from it.

p.s. More videos of the massive fish from the guide's TikTok:

cc: @Amarok, since you originally suggested that it might have been the wake from a fish, but I doubted that explanation since I didn't think there were any fish that large here in Canada.
