I have been out with Yves on several occasions and he always is top notch in professionalism, knowledge of the fishery and all around attention to all on his boat. Today my brother, nephew, son and myself went out and Yves was awesome. My brother is not a fisherman and is hard to impress but he said he had the best day he has ever had on a boat! And that’s why Yves is my go to guide!! Thanks Yves for once again a great trip and lots of great big fish on top!!

I just had a fantastic day yesterday. My dad is a fisherman, I caught thousands of fish in my life. I have never caught ancient river monsters! I've been smiling since. I recommend everyone to try it out. Thanks so much Bill. I hope to see you soon.

This guy is the sturgeon whisperer

BC’s Fraser River and Harrison River systems in Chilliwack, BC, are home to one of the world’s largest sturgeon populations. A commonly known fact in the sturgeon conversation.

We are the #1 destination for your sport fishing tours that’s grown imperative in such a short space of time, and anglers come from all around the world for these fishing tours and for the thrill of pursuing monster-sized sturgeon, salmon, sockeye, and steelhead as they leap their way along the Fraser River. Our fishing guides will follow all the bylaws involved that were given by the board of directors who speak to the sturgeon conversation

Meet This Ancient Fish With The Best Sturgeon Guides And Knock It Off Your Bucket List

It’s Canada’s largest freshwater fish and widely known as “river monsters.” In a full lifespan of over 100 years, it grows by a couple of inches each year, to more than 14 feet long and over 1000 pounds making it more difficult to catch when fishing for them.

The sturgeon has a distinctively different look – some say ugly, others think it’s unique. Its skin is not scaly but more like a shark’s skin, with rows of armoured scutes, which are small, sharp bony plates.

They feed by using their barrel to find food on the bottom of the river, and so their mouths are toothless suckers and the eyes are tiny and not much use to them which you can take advantage of on your white sturgeon catching trips in British Columbia.

They may live and feed along the river bottom, but once hooked, it will certainly make themselves known at and above the surface. Even larger sturgeon fish, commonly around 6 feet, will jump and put on a real show, even more so in their favourite warm water temperature at the Fraser River when fishing.

What Our Sturgeon
Guides Are All About And How They’ll Provide The Top Sturgeon Fishing Experience

The flats on either side of the dark spots can also pay as a place to drop your fishing bait. 20 to 40 feet of water is the most productive depth, but fish can also be caught at depths of 10 or 65 feet.

Take care navigating through the Fraser River waters during the fishing tours. As the depth figures above suggest, the currents can be unpredictable, much more than you might think, and winds can be intense.

Adding To The Sturgeon Conversation -Where To Find Sturgeon Fish in BC?

While the Fraser River and Harrison systems are the prime areas for white sturgeon charters locally, they are also found in the smaller tributaries for Fraser River fishing adventures. From Hells Gate (between Hope and Boston Bar) down to the mouth of the river, the lower river is home to a good supply of the Fraser River White Sturgeon breed as an excellent spot for sturgeon fishery.

They tend to be concentrated around seams, holes, and drop-offs at the bottom of the river. They are also plentiful in the quieter backwaters of the Fraser River, gathering where more food is available for them, so you know exactly where to find them all when fishing. It is hugely fulfilling to catch a Fraser River White Sturgeon and get it off your bucket list. Our sturgeon fishing guides are the happiest when we see this goal accomplished by our guests.

Succeeding In Fishing In British Columbia and North America To Catch As Much White Sturgeon As Possible

Fishing on the Fraser River fishing guides can be a slow process that requires patience. If the barometric pressure is falling, progress will be considerably slower. Even so, if they are not willing in a location after 30 minutes, they’re not coming at all, so move on and try another spot.
Don’t turn your drag all the way in, or you will lose your gear. The fish should be able to run with your bait, and they can take long runs, so give other boats plenty of space during your white sturgeon charter in BC.

Taking a sturgeon can be a subtle process when fishing for sturgeons. Most times the fish will make a few smaller pulls before it decides to take your offering and run with the bait.
This inspection in the Sturgeon hunting process may take up to 10 minutes, and setting your hook too early is a common mistake when fishing. Once you feel a steady pull, take up your rod and point it towards the water. Pick up any slack line and firmly set the hook.
You’ll want to keep your boat as stable as possible when fishing for sturgeon. Holding still in the water and not moving around is bound to bring more success to your white sturgeon catching in BC adventures.
Winds and currents can make a boat unstable, but one inexpensive tip to help the situation just requires a standard size bucket with a hole cut in the center. Then just tie it to the back of the boat, and it will help stabilize the boat.
Do remember that our fishing guides only set up at fisheries that are catch and release areas.
Good luck fishing and chasing the sturgeon.
