Sturgeon Moon Name Origin. What is a Sturgeon Moon? The full moon that appears in August is called the Sturgeon Moon. North American fishing tribes called Augustâs full moon the sturgeon moon since the species was abundant during this month, especially in the Great Lakes and other major bodies of water.
1 Sturgeons are related to the paddlefish and perhaps to the bichir. They have bony plates (scutes) covering the head and five longitudinal rows of similar plates along the body. 2  Sturgeons are found in greatest abundance in the rivers of southern Russia and Ukraine and in the freshwaters of North America.
