North Vancouver’s Fraser Legends Fishing has its very own motto: "Create your own legend." What could be more legendary than catching your very own Sturgeon? Even better, you’ll be able to reach your own personal world record and help conserve this incredible prehistoric fish at the same time.
The man behind your trip, Captain Peter Krahn, is a staunch supporter of the Sturgeon Conservation Society. He’s an official Sturgeon-tagger, and this respect for these creatures is at the center of the adventures he offers on board his charter.
When you embark on your trip with Capt. Peter, you’ll help with tagging, measuring, and checking the health of these magnificent fish before releasing them back into one of the mighty rivers – Fraser, Pitt, and Harrison. These fish are pretty acrobatic, so expect to witness some impressive leaps out of the water!
You’ll get to submit the information you gather on your fish to the Fraser River White Sturgeon Conservation Society for cataloging and registration of information. If you’re the first person to catch and tag a specific fish, your name will be registered as the original angler. You’ll be part of this fish’s history!
You’ll be fishing from your captain’s 19’ KingFisher jet boat, built to cruise these freshwater fishing grounds. She’s decked out with all the necessary safety and navigational gear and can accommodate up to 4 guests. Sometimes there are periods of waiting for the fish to bite, so children should be 12 years or older to join in on the fun.
Family Learn to Fish/Picnic Option or Hard Core Sturgeon Fishing Family Learn to Fish/Picnic Option: In the Family Learn to Fish/Picnic option, families with young children (3 to 10 years old) can fish for sturgeon, (usually 1 or 2 hours) and then learn to fish for smaller species and if they pack a picnic lunch or pick a lunch up at a local shoreside bistro can combine fishing with a shoreside picnic. The picnic sites are either a small sandy beach or a campground with picn

6 Hour Trip
Such a wonderful experience with Peter! From the minute we booked with him, he was so helpful with communicating things to make the planning process a breeze! We met him at the dock at 7 am and headed out to our spot, we decided to bring some snacks and a couple drinks. Peter had waters for us and offered some goodies as well. Learned so much on the fishery around the area and even got to help with the Sturgeon conservation with learning how to tag and track data. There were a total of 4 adults that went on this trip and we all had so much fun. Such a neat experience catching Sturgeon for the first time. Hope to come to the area in the future and fish with Peter again! Thank you for such a great day to end our trip here in Canada!

Peter was an excellent guide. Incredibly knowledgeable and dedicated. He put us on several fish in not the most ideal conditions and time of year. He made the trip more than just about catching fish but also learning about the fish and their conservation. It was a great trip and well worth the cost.

My girlfriend and I booked this trip during an early December vacation to the area. We weren't sure what to expect but what happened that day surely blew away our expectations. We ended up landing 8 fish ranging from small to big with over half needing to be tagged to help with research. The actual fishing portion was like nothing I have done in terms of feel and fight. Peter Krahn is a magnificent captain and person to help coach you through that experience and his large, vast knowledge from his background was very informative and interesting. The thorough knowledge he has to tag and study these fish always kept an interesting conversation going and he always knew how to crack a smile from time to time in between. A full 10/10 experience without question.

Even before fishing, the captain was attentive and guided us regarding the fishing license, clothing, followed the weather forecast, so that we could have the best experience. On the day of fishing he was very punctual and friendly throughout the day. He showed a lot of commitment to make our fishing experience as pleasant as possible! Captain Peter is a very kind, attentive and respectful person. He cares a lot about nature! We had the best possible experience and we still fished the sturgen! Thank you captain, and we'll be back as soon as possible!!

Had a blast out there with Peter. Due to tide changes the fishing was slow at first, but Peter went out of his way to extend the trip well past the initial 4 hour booking in order to get on some fish for no extra charge. Would definitely book again. Was a cool experience scanning the fish for microchips as well as documenting the fish information.
