Cascade Fishing Adventures| Sturgeon Fishing | Fraser River | Canada

Overview

Tour code: CAN001  
Enquire Now

Sturgeon fishing holidays on the Fraser River have risen in popularity over the years. This is due to the complex characteristics of the fish and the spectacular destination that comes with them. These giant dinosaurs, also known as the White Sturgeon, attract many anglers from across the globe. It comes as no surprise that anglers tend to return year after year to try and beat their personal best. With Sturgeon averaging between 75–200lbs now being the norm, this is an action-packed wilderness adventure not to be missed.

Like all our Sturgeon fishing holidays, everything has been carefully put together for you. Including flights, airport transfers, accommodation, and some of the best guides in Chilliwack. On top of this, all fishing tackle and bait are included. You will have a guide per boat, and these guides have been fishing the River Fraser for many years. They will take you to their hotspots and pass on their vast amount of knowledge.

Location

With its year-round action, any travelling angler can expect a full-on, exciting trip. As Sturgeon fishing holidays go, this is one-of-a-kind, and when you combine this with guides who have exceptional knowledge, you will be in a fishing paradise. This part of Canada is world-famous for its fishing and its massive run of the White Sturgeon. Make sure to visit our YouTube channel to see our latest freshwater sturgeon fishing videos.

It’s not just the number that is present, it’s the size that attracts anglers from around the world as these prehistoric beasts grow very large and fight very hard. The fishing takes place from a town called Chilliwack which is the perfect base for your adventure and with it only being a short 40-minute drive from Vancouver.

Fraser River Sturgeon Fishing

The style used when Sturgeon fishing is arm aching, some fights can last over 4 hours. Especially when hooked up to a 10ft plus fish. But the ache is worth it when you see a Sturgeon giving an aerial display as they begin to battle. On average, Fraser River Sturgeon tend to be 75–200lbs. Still, each week there is always a couple of extraordinary fish caught, and these special ones are what keeps anglers coming back to the Fraser River for their Sturgeon fishing holidays.

The primary method of fishing is with a zip slider lead of a couple of pounds and a long hook length leading down to your bait. Bait varies throughout the year and will always depend on what bait is running the river at your chosen time. The bait and lead are then cast behind the boat, and the rods are then placed in rod holders on the boat. You will then sit back while watching the tip of the rod, but keep your eyes peeled as some bites are very twitchy and the tip may tremble a couple of times, but more times than not the rod will hoop over, and the battle will commence. The rods and reels you will be using are mainly uptide rods with high-quality multipliers.

Each day your guide will pick you up from the designated area outside of your hotel, this will be discussed with you when you arrive, they will then take you down to the jetty where your state of the art jet boat will be waiting to take you out for your full days fishing. The jet boats you will be fishing from are 21–24 ft aluminium boats powered by 300hp inboard V8 engines.

Boats

All boats are equipped with a full top, complete with side windows and back-drop curtains, as well as heaters. Every boat is professionally outfitted with all the fishing equipment you will need to enjoy fishing the river. Most importantly, your boat is operated by a safe, conscientious, and professional fishing guide.

Guides

The guides here are a hand-picked crew that reflects the positive attributes required to be working in this industry. They have a passion for Sturgeon fishing and know the Fraser River better than anyone. They have a passion and desire to succeed in meeting and exceeding your expectations, a great sense of humour and an amiable persona.

Other Activities

Chilliwack is a vibrant town, rich in history, tons of outdoor adventures, so why not make a family fishing holiday out of your fishing adventure. We can organise numerous hikes, spend an afternoon golfing, walking around the various shops and museums.

Questions & Answers

Enquire Now

Where is the hotel?

The hotel where you will be staying for the week is in a town called Chilliwack. The town has many bars, restaurants and cafes and along with these, there are many shops and other attractions.

Where will I fish?

The guides each day will pick you up from outside of the hotel and take you the short drive to the river where they will launch the boats ready for your day ahead. The fishing is mainly performed on the Fraser River, however, if the guides think that some of the side streams may be worth targeting then they will advise you on the day.

How long does it take to reach the fishing grounds?

The Fraser River is a very wide and long river, some of the fishing grounds are opposite the launch ramp and some can be as far up or downstream as 45 minutes. The guides will on each day let you know where you will be fishing and how far the fishing grounds they intend on travelling to are. Each day you will fish different spots until the guides have located good feeding areas.

What fish will I catch?

Each day you will be targeting White Sturgeon as the Fraser River is the best place in the world for these mighty fish.

How many fish will I catch?

This all depends on the time of year you are travelling. April and October are good months for the bigger fish but you will not be catching as many. The warmer months will see the catch rate go up a lot and is sometimes harder to find the really big ones but who would complain about catching 4 – 7 ft Sturgeon. 

How will I fish?

All the fishing is performed from a state of the art jet boat. There will be quality rods and multipliers set up each day with heavy running weights and fish baits. These are cast out downstream of the boat and the clutch is loosened and then the fun begins.

Do the guides speak English?

The guides speak perfect English.

Who is best suited to this destination?

This style of fishing is open to all abilities and age. The guides are there to help you to land your dream fish, albeit a small Sturgeon or a huge one.

What skill level is required?

General knowledge of fishing from a boat is an advantage but not necessary. The guides are there to help you achieve what you want out of your holiday.

How physically demanding is this trip?

On whole, the trip is not that physical apart from playing the fish. The boats are very easy to walk around with a big fishing platform at the rear. The walks to the boat are very small and are on the hard ground, so no clambering over wet rocks to get in a boat.

When is the best time to go?

The season runs from April to end of October with peak time being September and October.

How will I get there?

The best route to get to Vancouver from the UK is London Gatwick to Vancouver as these are direct flights. We can fly people to Vancouver from anywhere in the world, so please ask us for the best route possible and we will search for the best options from the closest airport to you.

What is the accommodation like?

The hotel is a very good hotel, the best in Chilliwack. There is a very good onsite restaurant, however, there are also many different styles of restaurants in the town which are only a few minutes walk.

What is the food like?

Breakfast can range from continental style breakfast to bacon rolls which can be purchased either from the hotel or café opposite the hotel. Lunches can be pre-ordered and consist of different flavoured sandwich’s or baguettes. These can be pre-ordered before arrival. Evening meals can be either taken in the hotel or one of the many restaurants in town. There are fine dining restaurants, burger bars, pizza houses and even McDonalds.

Is fishing tackle provided?

On every boat, you will find top quality sets of fishing equipment to tackle these huge Sturgeon. Also, if you wish to change one of your days to target Salmon then there is also sets of Salmon fishing spinning equipment available (not fly fishing tackle).

Is the internet and phone signal available?

The phone signal and internet is good all over Chilliwack. You will get free Wi-Fi in the hotel.

Are there other activities available?

 Chilliwack is set amongst some of the most stunning Canadian countrysides and guided walks are available to pre-book. If you are looking for lots of interesting activities such as other tourist attractions then these are best booked and added to the end of your holiday when you get back to Vancouver. We can discuss with you adding extra days on and give you information on non-fishing activities.

How much does it cost?

We offer the complete package including all flights and transfers. To view, all available weeks and prices click the ‘Dates & Prices’ tab above. We also offer single angler trips to Canada for the Sturgeon each year, which are ideal for single anglers.

If you wish to arrange all our own travel arrangements we can book just the lodge and fishing for you. If you wish to book or have any questions please call us on 01603 407596 or fill in our contact form.

Our fishing guide Clayton Jones was superb. We requested that we could stay with him all week as apparently it is Cascade fishing Charters policy to switch the guides around.

I do not like this idea as it takes a few days to build a rapport with a guide and constant changing around prevents this.

Our holiday was much better having the same guide all week.

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Hi Lance

Thank you for the great feedback

Unfortunately the swapping of the guides is something that Cascade fishing do to enable everybody to fish with the different guides at the camp.

Tight Lines

Matt

Dale

Had a great time well organised all round.

The only suggestions I have are:

1. Swapping guides daily is a very poor idea, we requested our guide Clayton for the rest of the week after one day and felt this was very grudgingly agreed too.

2. Fishing times need to be more flexible for the anglers ie 10-18, 9-17 etc not a rigid 08:00 - 16:00. This is very poor in my view.

Deanna & Andrew were brilliant as before, the new lodge is perfect base camp. Unfortunately for us the Salmon fishing the first week on the Skeena River was disappointing due to the freak weather

The saving grace for us was the follow on week Sturgeon fishing the 3 days on the Frazer River we had 7 huge Sturgeon.

As mentioned I hope the poor run of fish down to the recent weather conditions. I still have a chinook to catch to give me the full set of Salmon Species.

Sportquest I cannot fault, superb servoce, from door to door, this was my second trip with you and I would totally recommend your company.... first class

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Thanks for talking the time to chat again like many customers on that week the weather was a killer especially for Salmon fishing. It has been a tough year on the Skeena and its tributaries. However I am sure it will be back to normal for next season.

Thank you for your continued feedback and support.

As discussed I would love to get you and your brothers to join me on the East coast next time fishing for the Atlantics.

Obviously, the best part was the fishing. Guides were superb, consistantley trying to put us on fish even though the fishing was hard.
Highlight was the last fishing day when I caught a 9 foot 3" 440 lb sturgeon and then the next fish hooked was even bigger. Even the guide was excited!! Unfortunately on the bigger fish although the fish was brought along side the boat, we were a long way from the beach. We tried to tow it to a beach but the hook pulled at the last minute.

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Hi John, thank you for your feed back it is a great help for future travellers. Sounds like you guys had an excellent trip and managed to see and hook some of the better fish. We ahve sent you a memory stick to hopefully get some of your pictures. Once again well done on the fish you caught

Leaping Sturgeon and the realisation of just how strong they are!! I should like to go again soon, but a little later in the year. Suggestion:- Train the guides to use a camera (You cannot train clients and some are useless with a camera)

With out a doubt best and most memorable parts of the holiday was the fishing. Seeing the river for the 1st time on our 1st trip was certainly a eye opener, I never imagined the river was that big and that fast. Hooking your 1st sturgeon, which all 3 of us on our boat did on the 1st day, was once again memorable as the sheer power of the fish could never be explained unless you experience it. The fishing was never easy but we managed at least we managed at least 1 fish on our boat everyday largely due to the skill of our guide. Our best was 6 fish in a day and even managed a double hook up one day. The most memorable day was the last day when I hooked and landed a 9 foot 3 inch 440lb fish. The fish of a lifetime and one which I will struggle to beat if or should I say when I return to Canada. Even after this fish we hooked a even bigger fish which we brought close to the boat and in the words of our guide the fish was beaten and we could just unhook and release. But even the guide wanted to try and get the fish to a beaching area and measure, so we towed the fish nearly 2 miles and beached boat but the fish had recovered and then took 200m of line in very quick time and in bring the fish back the hook pulled.
The guides, boats and tackle from Cascade were 1st class and I struggle to believe that they could be bettered.
Everything about the holiday was good and I struggle to fault anything.
I was a bit nervous about going on a trip with 5 other anglers I had not met before but we got on remarkably well.

Hi Gary, thank you for filling out your feed back form. A huge well done on catching your first Sturgeon, something I wish to tick off my list eventually.

Sounds like you and Karen had a great time and hopefully Mathew said hello?

This was a short trip (just 3 fishing days) which I bolted on to the end of a holiday with my wife which included an Alaskan cruise & a stay on Vancouver Island in British Columbia.
I caught 10 sturgeon to 6 feet 9 inches during my 3 days fishing. My guides were excellent as they constantly looked for fish holding areas & were always aiming to be catching.
The scenery, wildlife & fishing on the Frasier river is phenomenal. Marc who runs Cascade told me that the capture of an 8 foot sturgeon is now quite common & he reckons that in 2 to 3 years time that 10 feet fish will be caught fairly regularly.
I will certainly be going back as not only is it a privilege to experience the fishing that the Frasier offers but the thought of a 10 foot sturgeon lying alongside the boat is one of my dreams.

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Hi Mike, so glad you guys had an excellent end to your holiday with some Sturgeon fishing. I know how much you love your fishing Mike and I am sure that your day will come with a 10FT + fish.

Canada is one place that I would love to travel to as the scenery looks simply amazing.

All the best and we should catch up soon

The flight transit out was awful - cramped and no legroom ect., very uncomfortable, the return was better (Airbus) had more room.
Talking to another angler in hotel, he flew from London Heathrow with Air Canada and was very good. Maybe Sportquest could give alternative airport and choice of who to fly with, as will seriously consider not going to Canada next year. Everything else was great.

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Hi John, thanks for taking the time to fill out your feedback form. Sorry to hear that the journey out wasnt great and we will take onboard what you have said and will from now on offer people the option. As mentioned when we spoke yesterday we can get you going from London Heathrow with either Air Canada or BA both slightly more money but well worth the extra leg room

Look forward to helping you again next year

All the best

I came with my husband, but didn't fish. I had plenty to do - walking and painting and the hotel staff were excellent in helping me with this.

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Hi Caroline, it was good to catch up with you yesterday and I am so pleased you liked Chilliwack it is a stunning place and it was also very pleasing to hear that your husband had such a great time. Will he be taking you back there next year?

Our trip was a little more involved as it was made up of three destinations in Canada. So to answer the questions below is really a very broad view. I will answer by each destination
Sturgeon. The accommodation was absolutely stunning, on the river(good fishing)deer and bears in the garden. George the owner was really hospitable with his home made wine and use of his fishing tackle. (I will supply photos). The guides were excellent, very knowledgeable and tried very hard every day of our eleven days fishing. All four of us caught fish of a life time.
Carp fishing. Paul had every base covered on this part of the trip. A totally professional operation. The carp are hard fighting to say the least. They are shaped like bullets and swim as fast as one. We had 42 carp with 28 over twenty pounds. Most had never been caught before. The home cooked food at the end of the day was just what we needed to finish the day off.
Halibut fishing. The flights were an experience, small planes and the scenery. The Range of different fishing available is perfect. There is fishing on offer whatever the weather. Sea fishing 30/40 miles out, inshore or trolling in the narrows. The wildlife here is amazing we had eagles taking fish we had thrown for them. The grey whales feeding. Sea lions stealing the salmon we hooked and bears foraging on the shore. I must say that Shawn our guide was excellent, he combined the fishing and wildlife together. We caught Halibut chinook coho lingcod snapper and various species of rock fish..

Hi Alan & group. Thanks for taking the time to fill out your feed back form.

This trip was amazing to put together and one I would personally loved to have done. That first lodge we got you looked amazing and after speaking with you sounded awesome.

The Sturgeon fishing sounded like it went very well as you all managed some huge fish (Would love to see some of your pictures)

Then you guys went Carp fishing in Canada, something I have always wanted to do but its finding the time. Sounds like everything went to plan and you managed to get a feel for these river Carp.

Finally you went Halibut fishing and by the sounds of that, it went very well and you guys managed to lovely fish and plenty of species were boated.

Like I said above, it would be great to see some pictures of your adventure

All the best

Paul

Graham

The fishing adventure of a lifetime, great accomodation the guides where fantastic and the fishing is out of this world. The flight would be the only downside from my point of view.

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Hi Graham, thanks for your feedback. This destination is a must for any freshwater angler and is some where I will visit one year

Perhaps if you would like to return one year we can look at an upgrade on the flight for you.

All the best

Dear Paul,

Just a short note regarding our trip to British Columbia Sturgeon fishing in August - September 2016.

We had a fantastic time catching the fish of a lifetime Sturgeon a 9FT 2inch monster which took 1hr 20 minutes to land!

We also caught an 8FT 5inch (Nick) and a 7FT also others to 6FT plus

All told we had 11 fish in six days fishing - 6 to me and 5 to Nick. The guides were brilliant everyday trying very hard to put us on fish. Their knowledge of the river was outstanding, they were extremely friendly and made each day special.

I hope you like the videos and stills and this short note regarding the trip, we would both return in a flash, and would recommend highly to any other fisherman who would like to have a lifetime experience at catching Sturgeon.

We would like to say a massive thank you for your Company's excellent organisation of this trip.

Regards

Alan & Nick

An excellent trip from beginning to end. Superbly organised with personal attention from the Sportsquest staff. Ready answers to most questions and answers to others swiftly found. Comprehensive pre-travel information lead to a smooth journey to the Coast Hotel in Chilliwack. The hotel was comfortable with pleasant and responsive staff. We were disappointed to be told by our guides that the sturgeon fishing had recently been as hard as they had known it due to the poor salmon run this year. However they were clearly very knowledgeable and worked hard to get us some fish. The equipment was all provided and of a good standard. The ride in the jet boat to the fishing spots was excitement enough before we had caught any fish. My son and I caught 12 sturgeon between us in 5 days fishing. My biggest fish took me over an hour of hard work to land and measured 7 foot 5 inches. Perhaps for the first time in my life I was considering whether I wanted to hook a bigger fish than the last ones had caught! My son's best was 8 foot six inches long, with a girth of 36 inches, weighing well over three hundred pounds. The week's fishing left us entirely satisfied. If we were to go back in a "good" year a few pre-trip visits to the gym might be in order!! I haven't mentioned the seals, deer, black bear, bald eagles, ospreys and turkey vultures that all added to the enjoyment of the holiday. One of the guides even had a bird identification book on board! The weather was kind to us and the whole experience was all that we had hoped for. We didn't set ourselves goals for size or number of fish because these are beyond our control. More fish and bigger fish would not have made our trip any more enjoyable than it was. A brilliant overall experience.

HI Chris, thank you so much for taking the time to fill out your feedback form. The guides overt there are head and shoulders above the rest and their catch reports reflect this. Just imagine what it would be like if it was in its prime!!

Well done on your huge Sturgeon I bet your arms were burning after that fight?

Would love to see some pictures Chris if you could email them over. Hopefully we can get the opportunity to make other fishing dreams come true for you and your son in the future

All the best

Thanks Paul. I believe this was Chris and Robin Higgins. Fishing has been pretty tough, but we are working hard. Good to hear guests are still enjoying themselves and having a good time.

Cheers
Marc

Alan

Best part - catching a PB Sturgeon of 9ft 2inches.
Guides were excellent + scenery stunning!
Negatives - Hotel room not ready when we got there - had to wait 1 hour. No meet + greet, so a little in the dark as for where and what to do, especially the first mornings fishing. A simple 10 min meet up on arrival would soon sort this out. Overall 9.5 out of 10.
Would definitely go on this trip again!

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Hi Alan, thank you so much for taking the time to fill out your feedback form. They are a great help[ to future travellers and also us so if there are any issues we can try our hardest to resolve them.

Sounds like you guys had some huge fish and when we spoke sounded like you had the best time. So sorry about the hotel room these should be ready well in advance hopefully this will not happen again.

We have taken some steps to hopefully be a bit more organised on your first days fishing. There is now some very helpful and clear instructions in the pre departure paper work on where and at what time you should be meeting your guides.

Can not wait to see the pictures and especially the video of the big one

All the best

Jurgen

Hi Sportquest thanks for organising this trip for my two sons and myself. The fishing was a little hard but we did manage a Sturgeon just over 8ft which made our three days fishing.

Hotel was good, boats and guides were also very good. We did not catch anything the first day so Marc the owner kindly swapped our guide for Clayton and we then caught fish. The fishing tackle was also very good

This trip is very suitable for younger people. My sons are 15 and 17 and they loved it

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Hi Jurgen, thanks for the telephone call today and glad to hear you had a good trip. Shame the fishing wasn't manic but at least you got to see one of the better fish the Fraser holds. Hope your sons enjoyed the experience and am looking forward to seeing some pictures.

All the best

The Kalum River Lodge put huge effort into making their guests welcome; catering for individual needs be that dietary concerning food or direction and tuition with fishing for those "like me" that needed it.

The conditions for fishing were challenging, but Andrew and Deanna delivered an outstanding package.

The Sturgeon fishing was "awesome" to quote a favourite Canadian word.

The Coast hotel was comfortable and we did dine there through our choice and it was expensive but ok.

The only gap in the holiday was perhaps for Sportquest in the documentation to make clear that Cascade were responsible for arranging transfer to/from Vancouver.

We did not have a pick up time and the hotel did not know about our transfer.

In the end Melanie gave me the contact and we spoke to Marc (Cascade) once we knew they were the organiser.

All in all the holiday was an amazing trip and one I would love to do again soon.

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

John

Thank you so much for your feedback and also taking the time to chat on the telephone. It was great listening to your stories about all the big fish as it sounds like you both had an amazing holiday. I can also see from the pictures you kindly sent through that the fishing was very enjoyable.

I am sorry that there was some confusion about who and when the transfers were talking place on the return, I am not sure what happened and why there was the concern as we have always used cascade to run the transfers. I will have to look in to this further.
I know you both would like to return next year, but understand that it classes with the family holiday thats already booked. Never mind we can always look at the following year as the lodges and fishing will still be there.

Once again, thank you for your custom as it is alway very much appreciated.

Regards Peter

Robin

We had a great time fishing both Kalum River Lodge and Sturgeon fishing in Chilliwack, the staff and the fishing made for a great two centre holiday.

The only issue was flights as we had to pay $350 excess baggage on the flight to + back from Terrace, as they said that it was over their allowance. We were within British Airways limits, but not Westjet + the information we had did not highlight this.

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Robin

Thank you for your feedback I am so glad that you both had a great time and the fishing was as you wished for.

I am so sorry for the flights as I have no idea what they are doing. First the issue of one of you being down graded in class of seat to then charge you for excess baggage on the return.

The rules of the baggage is as the flights are booked as a through fare (E.G one ticket) the babe allowance should be as per the international allowance, so we have no idea what or why they charged you.

Please accept our apologies over this, but we do have no control over the airlines as they do seem to be law unto themselves.

Thank you for the excellent scores on everything apart from the flights as these score mean a lot to both me and all the staff.

Also thank you for your custom, it will be a pleasure in managing your next fishing adventure.

Regards Peter

Daniel

Had an amazing holiday with my farther salmon fishing at Kalum River Lodge and then Sturgeon Fishing on the Frazer River on the return. The fishing, organisation and staff was all perfect.

The only issue was British Airways.

Booked Business Class flights + had to go out Premium Economy Class. Down to British Airways not Sportquest Holidays, otherwise all very good.

Would not fly with British Airways again - can you book Air Canada Business Class from Manchester?

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Daniel

Thanks for the customer feedback and also the amazing scores for both Sportquest and the lodge staff, it is very much appreciated. The score for the flights is totally understandable considering all the issues caused by British Airways.

When they over sell the plane then have to down grade customer who have purchased a higher class ticket is nothing short of disgusting. (We are trying to encourage ALL customers to check in online before arriving at the airport as this goes a very long way to prevent them getting down graded.

We are processing the claim against BA and we will keep you informed. In relation to alternative flights yes we can book Air Canada plus others, so once you and your father are ready, just let me know and I can sort out everything for you both again.

What a great adventure both Salmon fishing and then Sturgeon fishing afterwards.

Very well organised

It was a great talking to you on return of your fishing adventure in Canada. I am so happy that you both enjoyed the Salmon fishing first, before moving onto the Sturgeon fishing on the Frazer River.

I hope to have you both back travelling with us very soon.

Kind Regards Peter

Martin

The fishing and guides were bril. More info was needed about the Salmon fishing when the run starts? But this did not spoil the Sturgeon fishing that was fantastic

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Hi Martin, glad you loved the fishing and I totally agree the guides are top class.

So sorry about there not being enough information about when the Salmon start to run, perhaps we will change that in the paper work.

Everything was first class, transfers, hotel, guides and the fishing was unbelievable.

The only down side was we wanted to celebrate some large fish caught and the bar shuts at 10pm week days

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Hi John, so glad you guys had a great time. A little different from the Mahseer fishing but I knew you would like this. The guys over there are first class guides and hosts

We would be more than happy to send you again in 2017. I will call you in the next couple of days to have a quick chat.

Speak soon

All the best

Amanda

What an amazing honeymoon we had!! The fishing (even though we were told by the guides was a quite slow this time of year) was absolutely fantastic with fish from 30 to almost 300LB!! Our guide (Clayton) was brilliant, very friendly, knowledgeable and went all out to catch you fish.

The only thing we weren't told was our pick-up time from hotel back to airport, but one mention of it to Cascade and they got it sorted. Excellent!! We will be back

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Hi Amanda so glad you guys loved the trip and what an amazing place to spend your honeymoon. I bet lots of anglers out there will be jealous!!

The pictures you kindly sent us are amazing and a huge congratulations on catching such big fish.

I shall pass on your lovely feedback to Cascade and once again thanks for choosing Sportquest Holidays to arrange such a personal and wonderful celebration.

All the best

Paul

Mike

What an amazing holiday, could not recommend it enough. This was our honeymoon so wanted it to be special and was not let down. Everything went very well from the pick up at the airport to the fishing, whole holiday was just perfect.

We caught 36 Sturgeon in total ranging from 60lb to just over 300lb it was such a good holiday. My wife and I loved it

The restaurants in town were very reasonable at around $80 in total for food and drink you could not of asked for more, the amount of food you got was also huge!

I have been on many fishing holidays in my life but this one was the best. We were guided by Clayton for most of our time and was more than pleased with his abilities.

Thanks Sportquest and we will be in touch for a return trip in 2017

All the best Mike

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Hello Mike thanks for speaking with me today on the phone. Sounds like both of you had a wonderful time and thank you for filling out your form.

I like the bit you said when the guides said ti wasn't even fishing that well...... I think 36 Sturgeon in a week was brilliant

Perhaps next year your trip will be even better especially if you time it for the big Salmon run in mid August in to September

Once again thank you choosing Sportquest Holidays and we would love to help you organise next years trip

All the best, Paul

Hi Paul,

Good to hear that Mike and Amanda had a great time fishing with us and that they found all the amenities and the fishing to be to their satisfaction. Looking forward to seeing them here again.

Our guides on this trip were Marc Laynes, CEJ Mussell and Rob Mumford, as we had a group of 8 people going out to fish for Sturgeon.

I was looking forward to this trip so much, and it more than lived up to my expectations. Any one who loves fishing should give it ago with these guys. Great fun, great service, very professional and the whole trip was just excellent from start to finish.
We will definitely be recommending this trip to everyone.

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

They are the best guides in the area.

Thank you for the review

Craig

Thanks for a brilliant fishing trip this month, this was my second time fishing with you and the travel from Scotland is always worth it.

I can’t fault your service at all, from the airport pick up, to the morning meetings at the door of the hotel right down to the first cast, the professionalism of your selves and your guides is outstanding and your knowledge of the river and the fishing is clearly clinical, no detail is missed.

We had a brilliant week of fishing with a new personal best sturgeon for all of our party. We can’t wait to return to Canada to fish with you again. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend your company to my friends and family.

See you again soon.

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Thank you for the destination review, very very much appreciated and so glad you had another amazing time.

Chris

I would like to say a very big THANK YOU to you Marc and Maggie and the rest of your team for the excellent fishing you gave us again this year.

We have been fishing with you for over 12 years now and it just keeps getting better and better, for the third year in a row you have delivered me a PB. Your organisation always runs like a well-oiled machine.

The memories of the fishing go on for a lot longer after the fishing has finished. It is not just the fishing that makes it so special, all the views and the wildlife that you see while you are out there are an added bonus. Sturgeon fishing should be on everybody’s wish list.

Hope to see you all again soon.

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Chris thank you for taking the time to write a review.

Martin

Now that I have slept/properly recovered, I would like to record – on behalf of myself & all in my fishing party – our thanks to everyone.
The week we have just spent in Chilliwack being guided on the Fraser River has truly realised for the 8 anglers involved, the fishing trip of a lifetime for all of us…………….both individually & collectively.

The fishing was “out of this world” + we recognise just how fortunate we have been. Over the 6 days, the final tally was 134 fish landed; of these, a staggering 24 involved sturgeon of 300lbs plus. 4 fish were estimated at over 400lbs each – with a top weight of 500lbs for a single fish of 10 feet in length, with a girth that measured at 50 inches !!
However, being a veteran of many fishing trips, I realise that catching fish is only a part of the experience. All of your guides, boats, tackle + organisation were first class and summed to an unforgettable Canadian adventure.

Good Morning Peter,

I must apologise for the delay in getting in touch but I have been very busy catching up since our return from British Columbia.

The trip was great. Everything organised, good guides and Marc looked after us very well.
Even the weather was perfect.

We caught a total of 16 sturgeon and lost 4 big ones.
We did not bother with the salmon.

I have loads of pictures and will forward you two pictures of the biggest one we landed which was 8ft 6 ins long, 54 ins in girth and was 450lbs. My son Daniel hooked and landed this one.

We hooked another two that were 9ft+ and we had one at around 270lbs 260lbs and 250lbs and the rest were smaller.
I have a video of one jumping clear of the water if you want I can try and send it to you.

Many thanks for everything

Kind Regards
Robin

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

HI Robert thanks for getting back to me, OMG one of those pictures is amazing great shot of you with a monster sturgeon head on..... :)

Glad you both had an amazing time and got in to some real biggies. The biggest fish do really take some landing..

Thank you for choosing to travel with Sportquest Holidays, I personally look forward in managing future bookings for you and your son.

Peter just a quick note saying the new accommodation at the Royal Hotel is just fine. The service is so much better than before at the Rhombus. We even got breakfast on time every morning. What dates do you have for the last quarter?

"The holiday brochure advertised it as a 'Fishing Adventure of a Life Time' and it certainly lived up to every bit of that statement. Fishing for the Giant White Sturgeon on the Fraser River at Chilliwack in British Columbia has to be one of the best fishing holidays experiences, catching a 6ft, 150lb Sturgeon in the fast flowing waters of the Fraser river on 50lb class stand up and fight tackle was a serious rush of adrenalin which tested our strength, stamina and fishing ability to its absolute limit. Our guide Marc Laynes runs 'Cascade Fishing Adventures' which provides the best guiding service in Chilliwack, Marc's knowledge of the Fraser River and the sturgeon fishing is second to none. He has a great feel for the river and in his 40mph jet boat 'Relentless' we explored many miles of it. Nothing was to much trouble to get that 'big one'. Our accommodation in the historic Royal Hotel (circa 1908) was first class and the great evenings spent in one of the many local bars or restaurants in Chilliwack was all part of our holiday, but it is the daily experience of snow covered mountains, fabulous wild life and of course the mighty Sturgeon that will brings us back to the Fraser River again next year. Our thanks to the Sportquest Holidays and in particular Marc Laynes for making our 'fishing holiday of a life time'. Regards, Nelson, Brian, Graham and Tony"

Reply from Sportquest Holidays

Hi Guys, thanks for your great feedback the fishing for Sturgeon must make it on to all anglers to do list. The rush you get from this fishing is awesome, plus being surrounded by some of the Worlds best scenery is just a bonus

We have some great dates available for next so i will call you guys this week to see how they work for you
