Sturgeon Fishing Field Trip

During the second week of April, our Aboriginal students have the opportunity to experience sturgeon fishing with a Sto:lo elder.  The all day trip will be provisioned through the Harrison based BC Sportfishing Group.  It is a professional fishing organization that will provide the boats, a guide for each boat, as well as hands on conservation education.  An Aboriginal elder will also be on each boat to share their Sto:lo cultural knowledge pertaining to the Fraser River, and sturgeon fishing.  All costs will be covered by the Aboriginal program.

BC Sportfishing Group is committed to the environment and creating a sustainable fishing industry. For BCSFG this commitment is  key as our product is the environment.  Accordingly, BCSFG has developed a strategy of focusing on sustainability and environmental awareness.  The company plays a leading role in Sturgeon and Salmon conservation initiatives.  Guides help to educate Anglers on the importance of environmental awareness.
