Title: Sturgeon From Shore on the lower fraser
Post by: Archer on November 01, 2014, 07:55:02 AM

If you had the day to fish for the mighty sturgeon, where would you go?  Glenn Valley, Bedford Channel? I have caught in both areas during freshet, but never fished for Dino's in the fall. I live in Langley.

Never fished for sturgeon, but, on trips over the Mission Bridge I see guys below.Might want to try that area. There looks to be sandy bars, and people on camp chairs. I presume they're fishing for sturgeon.

This time of year they are bar rigging for coho and catch sturgeon as a by catch.
