  2. What is the best time to catch sturgeon? • We are often asked when the best time to catch sturgeon is. With lots of experience under our belt, we can tell you! • Firstly, it is worth noting that we are very lucky to have such an extensive fishing season on the Fraser River. • Legally, we are permitted to fish for white sturgeon all year, however the winter months (December through February) are a little slower. +1 (604)-316-3988 +1 (604)-316-3988

  3. What is the best time to catch sturgeon? • Water temperatures in these winter months can hover close to the freezing point, which directly affects the metabolism of fish. • When water temperatures are this cold, sturgeons will be less enthusiastic than they would be in the warmer seasons making the experience less memorable. • In the spring you will find sturgeon starting to move around when the Fraser waters start to go silty. +1 (604)-316-3988 +1 (604)-316-3988

  4. What is the best time to catch sturgeon? • The waters go silty because as the weather starts to warm up, the rainwater from up North will shed off the snow and go into the river, bringing in silt and reducing the river’s clarity. • When this starts to happen it’s a good sign that the temperatures are warming up, and subsequently the fish will start moving around and foraging. +1 (604)-316-3988 +1 (604)-316-3988

  5. What is the best time to catch sturgeon? • In April, sturgeon fishing in BC really kicks off with the arrival of eulachons - a smelt that lives in the Pacific Ocean that spawns in the Fraser River. • Around the last week of April, the sturgeon will ingest eulachons at high levels. • As spring moves into summer, the river rises rapidly due to the warming weather. +1 (604)-316-3988 +1 (604)-316-3988
