Fishing & Sightseeing Tours

An Exhilarating Sport Fishing Experience

The Fraser River is known for the Monsters of the River – White Sturgeon. The largest freshwater fish in the world! Trophy surgeons can range from 7 to 12 feet in length and can weigh anywhere from 150 to 1000 pounds.

Sturgeon are bottom feeders so when fishing for them we anchor your boat, then cast fresh bait to the bottom of the Fraser River. Once you drop your line, we’ll take you to shore where you can grab a lawn chair and await the big fight!

When you are fighting a fish this big, it takes over 100 yards of line out in seconds and there is nothing like it in the world! These fish can take over an hour to get to the boat, so if you are ready for the fight to begin, book your trip today!
