Fraser sturgeon, salmon and steelhead with Cascade Adventures, top guides.

Sturgeon........Can reach weights in excess of 1000 pounds, these hard fighting sporting fish average 20 to 200 pounds. 300 , 400 pound  and bigger fish are caught each season. Marc Laynes at Cascade Adventures has had three 800 pound plus to his boat. It's never easy to say how many one can expect to hook and land, but on a good day's fishing there are usually 10 to 20 fish hooked per boat per day. These sturgeon fight deep and hard and they are extremely acrobatic often leaping clear of the surface. All sturgeon fishing is catch and release. Salmon offer great sport on the fly September and October. Winter and spring Steelhead is excellent too.
