Unbelievable is one way to currently describe our BC Sturgeon fishing charters. The BIG fish are here and in big numbers. Our guides are consistently finding plenty of Sturgeon up to 9 feet long, and a few much bigger like the 1,000 lb plus we had on for over 2 hours a few days ago.
Plan ahead for 2020: Book for our Spring Sturgeon Special which is running from January 1 to April 30. April Sturgeon fishing is epic!
See our Instagram feed for photos from the entire season.
We are always well stocked with the right bait that will get you the fish of your life.
