Experience the thrill of pursuing one of the world's most impressive freshwater species with our exclusive Sturgeon Fishing expedition. Your adventure begins with a private transfer from Whistler to the banks of the Fraser River system, home to the prehistoric white sturgeon—a remarkable species that can grow to over 12 feet in length and live for more than 100 years. These ancient fish have remained virtually unchanged for over 200 million years, offering anglers a truly unique opportunity to connect with living history.

Upon arrival, you'll meet your expert fishing guide—a seasoned professional with intimate knowledge of sturgeon behavior and habitat. After a comprehensive briefing on specialized equipment and conservation-focused catch-and-release techniques, you'll board a custom fishing vessel equipped with premium gear specifically designed for sturgeon fishing. Your guide will navigate to proven holding areas where these magnificent fish gather, sharing fascinating insights about sturgeon biology and the ongoing conservation efforts to protect this vulnerable species.

The pursuit of sturgeon combines moments of peaceful anticipation with bursts of heart-pounding excitement. When a sturgeon takes your bait, prepare for an extraordinary battle that showcases the fish's legendary strength and endurance. Your guide will coach you through the fight and assist with the proper handling and release of these protected fish, ensuring their well-being while allowing for remarkable photography opportunities.
