Spring sturgeon fishing

Fraser River Sturgeon

Fraser River Sturgeon

Well our fist trip out on the Fraser River was dynamite! For three flat lander’s we did pretty good.

We managed to land just under 50 sturgeon in three days. I should say three very long days. We fished hard, on the water at 6am and shut it down around midnight.

It was one of the most rewarding fishing trips I have ever been on.

I can see hitting the Fraser River will be an annual fishing trip with the boys.

Gearing up for the Fraser!

Sturgeon Fishing.

Sturgeon Fishing.

We are gearing up to hit the famous Fraser River! I'll be joining Tyler Speed and Terriss Birch, two avid anglers. Tyler has plenty of experience with the White Sturgeon that are abundant to the Fraser. Terriss is an avid fly fisherman that will be experiencing the mighty White Sturgeon for first time. I have only hooked into the Lake Sturgeon that lurk the waters of the North Saskatchewan River and cannot wait to see the sizes the Fraser so plentifully provides. We will be spending three days exploring the  best spots of the Fraser River.

We will be in the heart of the Fraser canyon, about 300 km upstream from the ocean. The plan is to battle a few 7 or 8 foot fish with the chance of a monster 10 footer. The scenery is beautiful, the fish are prehistoric and it's a battle of strength to the end always. Fishing holes 100 feet deep with crazy current and jagged rock formations everywhere. Some camping, lots of time on the river and ...the hardest part is always leaving.

We got the chance to donate a full day of fishing on the North Saskatchewan River to the Alberta Hunter Education Association.

The winner of the live auction trip was Hugh Ziprick of Vegreville, Alberta! We will be hitting the North Saskatchewan River for a full day of action packed adventure! With high hopes of landing a trophy lake sturgeon!

Hip Hot Spots!

We were super excited to have Outdoor Canada Magazine tag Lunker’s Fishing Adventures in there March issue. The North Saskatchewan River landed number seven of thirty one fishing destinations across Canada!

With Spring not to far off we are getting rigged up for the up and coming fishing season! Sharping up our hook's for three days of filming with the the Wild West Fishing Show, with host Wes David. We will be targeting multi species of fish in the North Saskatchewan River.   

Young Guns!

The young guys were on fire today! My son and his buddy had big hopes of hooking a monster Jack, we were running 12 inch bait fish to lure the big ole donkeys in, but we couldn't capitalize today. We had one break us off at the hole but that's fishing!

With the hard water season coming close to an end, this is the time of the year when the big girls come out to play! Hoping to get out with the family to tie into some big ole Jackie girls before the open water season.
