| Welcome to the Sturgeon page and Sturgeon fishing gallery! |
 There is nothing like the mighty sturgeon, these huge prehistoric fish are one of the most rewarding challenges on the Fraser River.
Sturgeon is a term for a genus of fish (Acipenser) of which twenty-one species are known. One of the oldest of fish in existence, they are generally known as the dinosaurs of fishing, they are native to our waters. Sturgeons ranging from 8 to 11 feet (2.5 to 3.5 m) in length are not rare by any means and some species grow to a much larger size.
Sturgeon are bottom-feeders. With their projecting wedgeshaped snout they stir up the soft bottom, and with their sensitive barbels detect shells, crustaceans and small fish, on which they feed. Having no teeth, they are unable to seize larger prey.
Take a look further and have a read.
