September through until late November is primetime for trophy sturgoen fishing.

Sturgeon fishing in Vancouver British Columbia offers anglers a world class experience. The Fraser River Sturgeon fishery has one of the largest population of Sturgeon in the world today. We fish for Fraser River Sturgeon in Vancouver, British Columbia year round and is one of our most consistent fisheries, seldom do we not catch fish. There are two times of year when Sturgeon fishing in British Columbia reaches it's best, spring brings our annual migration of the Eulichans (small bait fish) to the Fraser river to spawn. Food in winter is scarce so when the Eulichans arrive the Sturgeon are eager to feed, it's not uncommon to hook 15 to 20 fish in a 6 hour trip.

.

The second peak period is in the Fall when the largest salmon migrations occur. This is without a doubt some of the best fishing you will experience anywhere in North America. Peak fishing in the Fall is between mid September to late November. This is also when some of the best salmon fishing occures, we often fish both salmon and sturgeon on the same day.

Sturgeon tail walk across the water, much like salmon and marlin.

Sturgeon are known for Tail walking leaps and can quickly spool 200yds of line, an average fish of 4 to 6 feet will test the skill and strength of any angler. During peak periods is when our average size will increase though you can catch 8 to 10 footers anytime of year. We offer one day to one week Guided trips and also provide a good selection of accommodation packages. If you would like more information on Sturgeon fishing please feel free to call or email us.

This fish was caught in summer of 2007 by our guests from California fishing in the Fraser Canyon.
