Fishing Adventures
White Sturgeon
Nothing compares to the thrill of fishing for a prehistoric monster known as
White Sturgeon, the largest of North American sturgeon. They can be fished for year round and today in the Fraser River they range in size from 2-12 feet, and have been known to grow even larger. With weights in excess of 1000 lbs, fishing for this "dinosaur" can only be referred to as a chance to "leash the beast!"

Chinook
If salmon fishing is a part of your angling agenda, then your opportunity exists May through mid-November. With overlapping runs throughout spring and summer,
Chinook, also known as Kings or Spring salmon, are the first to begin their migration up river. The largest of Pacific salmon, they are all muscle and have an average weight of 25 pounds, though Chinook have been known to tip the scales in excess of 50 pounds.
Sockeye
Sockeye usually run from mid-June to October and are among the most popular of Pacific salmon species to fish. Once hooked, they can put up a wild battle as they rip up the river surface and retreat downstream. Perfect for showing off on the bar-b-que, they range in size from 5 to 10 lbs.
Coho
While typically a bounty for the ocean fisherman,
Coho suddenly become more discriminating to lures when migrating the Fraser river mid-August to November. Coho, also called Silvers, will test your skill and are sure to entertain with their acrobatic moves and shear strength as they resist the catch. Coho commonly weigh in at a respectable 8-12 pounds.
Chum
Chum salmon are commonly known in the Fraser Valley as "dog salmon." Any angler looking for an opportunity for a full day of fishing should consider fishing for Chum mid-September to November. These brutes, which can exceed 20 lbs are known for two things; first, their exhausting strength -- generally it is the angler who fatigues before the fish, and second, their lack of discrimination concerning bait. If you want a fish to play with, this is your species.
Pink
The run for "
Pinks" is short lived, spanning mid-August to mid-October. An aggressive fish, they are undiscriminating in their choice of lures and will gladly provide you the opportunity to tie-up another line! Pinks are the smallest of Pacific salmon and usually weigh in less than 8 pounds. Though only seen during odd number years (we'll see them again in 2007), their numbers are plentiful and make for a fun day with many hook-ups. Pinks will provide you with the fast paced angling action you may be seeking.
Steelhead
Steelhead fishing is an option for the fisherman in the fall and again in late winter to early spring. To fish for Steelhead is to experience sport fishing at it's finest. Anglers from all over the world come to B.C. to fish for trophy Steelhead which can achieve weights of 30 pounds. More commonly found however, is a feisty Steelhead that will weigh 6-18 pounds. At either size you will have the opportunity to experience all the best that river fishing has to offer.
Trout and other species
Cutthroat, Rainbow and Char are also fished at various times throughout the year.
