FISHING FOR WHITE STURGEON ON THE FRASER RIVER
Sturgeon have an immense amount of power and speed, and are capable of peeling 200 yards of line off the spool in seconds. Even though Sturgeon are mostly bottom dwellers, their fighting ability can be compared to that of any BIG GAME sport fish. Sturgeon fishing is available year-round on the Fraser River with the main season running from April to the end of November. During this peak period, Sturgeon gorge themselves on the abundance of food present in the river system.
With White Sturgeon able to exceed 20ft in length and more than 1,500lbs, every angler needs to get out on the Fraser River and have a chance at hooking into one of these prehistoric goliaths.
