Are you ready for an unforgettable exclusive CARDP adventure into the heart of British Columbia's wilderness? Join us for a thrilling six-hour sturgeon fishing excursion on the legendary Fraser River, where the thrill of the catch awaits!

As one of North America's greatest rivers, the Fraser is renowned for its stunning beauty and abundant wildlife. Flowing through majestic landscapes, this iconic waterway sets the stage for an unparalleled fishing experience.

Prepare to reel in the giants of the river – white sturgeon, the largest freshwater fish in North America. Expert guides with years of experience on the Fraser River will navigate the waters, seeking out the prime spots where these prehistoric behemoths lurk. Guides (and CARDP host, Ash Varma) will provide personalized instruction and tips, ensuring everyone has a chance to hook into the catch of a lifetime.

Equipped with top-of-the-line gear, and four-person jet boats, this fishing experience is nothing short of exceptional. As stewards of the environment, we prioritize the conservation of these magnificent creatures. All sturgeon are carefully handled and released, allowing future generations to enjoy the thrill of catching these ancient fish.

This experience of a lifetime includes return transportation from the Pan Pacific Vancouver (about 75 minutes each way) and a six-hour fishing experience, all gear and lunch included.
