The 4 of us had fun in the rain, it was really good that there was a covered area to sit and stay dry. Caught some fish which was amazing such a great experience.

What a absolutely wonderful experience. Our guide, Oliver, was everything you would want in a professorial guide. He was not only knowledgeable about everything fishing but of the river and surrounding area. Very much into sustainability of the sturgeon which we were very happy to hear. Asked about picture taking on the shore which you see in a lot of websites and he explained how very detrimental to the sturgeon that is. We had the perfect 1/2 day on the river. Easy on and off the boat and the boat was perfect for either a sunny day or cool day on the river. Would I recommend this company, absolutely. Bring your muscles to real in those amazingly strong sturgeon. 5 * thumbs up great time.

Oliver is an excellent guide. With over 23 years experience fishing and guiding, it was like sitting at the feet of a great teacher. He is so knowledgable about sturgeon. He is no nonsense which I like.
All of us in our group caught fish. I would highly recommend Oliver as a fishing guide. I was able to cross off an item on my bucket list and I am feeling very satisfied.

About Swiftwater Guiding
Fishing can be a solitary pursuit, but Swiftwater Guiding's team knows that sturgeon fishing is a team sport. It can take three or four people to hold a Fraser River sturgeon—the behemoths can measure up to 12 feet long and often weigh more than 1,000 pounds. Even more impressive, sturgeons are known for their verve, executing spectacular leaps when pursued, and chomping on bait so hard that bystander fish feel proud of their own table manners.
