Fraser River Sturgeon Fishing. Sturgeon Fishing at it’s best!
Fraser River Sturgeon Fishing is what Lang’s Fishing Adventures specializes in.
Fraser River Sturgeon fishing is a strictly catch and release only due to previous overfishing and with Sturgeon being an engangered species. This is why the White Sturgeon fishing on the Fraser River is so good as there are more and more every season!
The peak season for Fraser River Sturgeon fishing starts in July and ends in December. During peak season, on average we will get between 10 to 30 Sturgeon, ranging from 3 to 10 feet in one full day of fishing.

Wondering what Sturgeon are all about? Here’s some information on Pacific Sturgeon or White Sturgeon…
The white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus, meaning “sturgeon beyond the mountains”), also known as the Pacific sturgeon, is a sturgeon (a fish of the family Acipenseridae) which lives along the west coast of North America from the Aleutian Islands to Central California.
It is the largest freshwater fish in North America and is the third largest species of sturgeon, after the Beluga and the Kaluga. The white sturgeon is known to reach a maximum size of 816 kg (1,798 lb) and 6.1 m (20.1 ft).
The Sturgeon is a primitive, scaleless fish with an under-slung mouth. The body is long and tubular and bends upwards at the caudal peduncle to follow the upper lobe of the tail. A Sturgeon’s head is triangular and flattened from above. Bony plates protect the gill covers and throat region. Four barbels are situated just ahead of the protrusible mouth. There are five rows of bony scutes running along the body: two along the underside from the pectoral fins to the anal fin, two along the lateral line from the head to the tail and a single row along the back from between the eyes to the dorsal fin. The dorsal, pelvic and anal fins are situated in the rear third of the body. The caudal fin is asymmetric with the upper lobe about twice as long as the lower.
Sturgeons vary in colour from dark brown to green above to light brown to white below. All scute are lighter in colour then the rest of the body.
Sturgeon spend most of its time in the sea, usually close to shore and thenenters estuaries of large rivers, moves far inland to spawn. Individuals larger than 48.3 cm feed mainly on fishes; smaller ones feed mainly on chironomids, but also takes small crustaceans, other insects and mollusks. Feeding ceases just before spawning.
