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.
Also known as Pacific Sturgeon and Columbia Sturgeon. Sturgeon are primitive fish with rows of bony, armorlike plates on their sides and a skeleton of cartilage rather than bones. Their tail looks similar to the tail of the shark. Four barbels hang under the sturgeon's long, flattened snout in front of the mouth.
