Fishing Description

Many anglers are unaware of the tremendous fighting capabilities of these fish - the subtle and gentle take is a huge contrast to the tailwalking jumps and endlessly powerful runs the angler will encounter during the battle. A most exhiliarating experience and one that many of our guests repeat yearly! We hook hundreds of sturgeon from 100 - 200 pounds with dozens exceeding these weights every year. Our best fish landed by a guest is 10 feet long and 550 lbs in weight, while our personal best exceeded 12 feet in length and weighed close to 900 pounds.

Jaw-dropping is the only phrase that describes seeing a fish that big jump out of the watert. It is truly awe inspiring to hold fish of these sizes while at the shoreline to release these giants. We generally average five Sturgeon per day with some days in excess of 20.

We offer 18 years of experience guiding anglers in the Fraser valley for 5 species of pacific salmon, steelhead and the notorious Fraser river giant, the white sturgeon. The area is a unique valley with warm summers and mild winters allowing us to fish 12 months of the year. We use jetboats to travel the river to get to the various fishing spots, and since we're on the river daily, we know what areas are fishing well at any given time. The boats are covered to keep you cool in the summer, and are fully enclosed during damp weather. All boats are new, well maintained, safe and are operated by experienced guides. Our guides are truly interested not only in fishing, but in guiding anglers to help them realize the dreams of their fishing adventures. Our guiding operation maintains a strict code of angling in an ethical manner. These are some aspects that make our business stand out from others.

There are peak seasons for each species, and plenty of opportunities for combination trips, including fishing for various species in one day! Mixed angling methods and gear types for a variety of fish species is a highlight of the attraction to the Fraser river fishing experience. There really is something for everyone, no matter the method preferred or the level of experience of the angler.

Another attractive benefit to the Fraser fishing experience is the opportunity to do many other activities in the area while you are angling. These activities include taking in the numerous sights involving the unique natural attractions in the area as well as whitewater rafting, whale watching, hiking, and golfing.

The Fraser river fishing experience is a unique adventure. The fact that there are so many angling opportunities coupled with other non fishing activities make it an excellent holiday for everyone from the serious hardcore angler to the family oriented vacation.
