The mighty Fraser River is home to the worlds largest fresh-water game fish
. . . the white Sturgeon. Catching one is likely to be the "ultimate fishing
experience" for even the most avid sport fishermen. They can reach lengths
of up to 15 feet long and tip the scales at well over a 1000 pounds.
Sturgeon are not only known for their incredible size but also for their
fighting ability, often making spectacular jumps and taking long " reel
screaming runs ".
 
“Charlie Wray” ... host of the popular TV Show “FISHFUL THINKING” and
his wife Terry with her 7 foot plus white sturgeon.
Over the past several years “Len’s Sportfishing Adventures”
has been featured on almost a dozen TV shows with 4 more
scheduled for this year. These shows air on networks across
Canada and the United States. This years episodes will include
“Fraser River” sturgeon, spinning and jig fishing for salmon,
pink salmon on the fly and fly fishing interior lakes for
rainbow trout.
Salmon
Salmon fishing in British Columbia can be spectacular! In fact, the Fraser
River in B.C. is the largest salmon producing river in the world with huge
runs of Chinook Salmon
( King Salmon ), Coho Salmon ( Silver Salmon ), Chum
Salmon, Sockeye Salmon and Pink Salmon. The timing of the runs often
over-lap and it is frequently possible to catch several species in the same
day. They can be readily caught fly fishing, drifting, mooching, spin
casting or with ultra-lite tackle. |

Chinook
are the largest of the pacific salmon and when hooked
put up a spectacular fight, capable of long powerful
runs. Chinook over 30 pounds are common but salmon over
50 or 60 pounds are hooked often enough to  keep
life exciting. Although they are in the Fraser most
of the year they are most abundant from May to the end
of October. |

| Coho
are likely the most prized of our salmon if for no
other reason . . . they will readily take spinners
and jigs fished with ultra-lite tackle or fly. They
are in prime shape from early September through to
the end of November.

Sockeye are pound for pound one of the strongest fish ever caught on sport
tackle. When hooked they simply go nuts! They are incredibly fast and often
spend more time in the air than in the water. They can be relatively easy to
catch on light tackle and are abundant in numbers from July to mid
September. |
| |
Chum are
commonly referred to by locals as
" Dog Salmon " mainly due to the seemingly
endless fight they can put up when hooked. They are
most often caught bottom bouncing, spin casting or fly
fishing and are plentiful mid September to November. |

Pink
are probably the easiest of the five
pacific salmon to catch and can be a lot of fun on
ultra-lite spinning or fly tackle. They love .
. . . . jigs. They are in local rivers in September
and October only during the odd years. (e.g. 2001,
2003 etc)

Steelhead
The Fraser Valley has several rivers
that offer excellent Steel heading opportunities for
both wild and hatchery fish. We often catch large Thompson
River bound Steelhead while fishing for Salmon on the
Fraser River. Best fishing in other local rivers from
January to late spring.

Trout and Char
We are truly blessed with "world class" fly
fishing for Rainbow and Cutthroat Trout. There are virtually
thousands of lakes, rivers and streams to fish within a short
drive. Sea-run Cutthroat are abundant in the Fraser and Harrison
Rivers most of the year with prime time being the spring and
fall months. They are revered by the locals and have an almost
cult like following of ardent Fly Fishers. A good fishery exist
in some local lakes for Dolly Varden Char. They can be caught
during the summer and fall months to sizes of up to 20 pounds on
ultra-lite tackle. |
