<p>Over 30 million Sockeye salmon returning to spawn in the Fraser river watershed is the biggest run since 1913!

Fishing has been great to say the least!

The Sockeye sport fishery is likely open until Sept 19.

Sturgeon are feeding well and we are getting some real fat beasts that are testing the endurance of even the toughest clients! This past week we landed several Sturgeon over 8 feet or over 300 lbs!

Peak season for Sturgeon is Sept-November and we have lots of dates available.

Keep safe on the water!
