My wife and I had the most INCREDIBLE experience with Yves on 8/6/23! From the moment we got on his boat you could tell Yves had knowledge of the river and immense respect for nature and the sturgeon.

The fishing was unreal! Yves helped us land a 3'7" and a 6'9" sturgeon. He coached us the entire way. We really admired how much he cared for the fish and thru his documentation helped us learn about the fish we caught.

We highly recommend Yves Bisson!! It was definitely an experience we will remember.

- Kenneth A.

Yves delivered, and some. He worked hard to make our group comfortable and patiently taught us technique and explained the conservation program. We brought in some big fish. Thanks for the adventure of a lifetime. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

- Micah Butler

My 2 sons and I fished with Yves on 9/18/23 for the first time and it will definitely not be the last time! First class guide from start to finish, he went above and making sure we had a memorable experience! From putting us all on monster fish, to explaining the tagging program, to helping us get great photos and video, he did a fabulous job all the way thru! I highly recommend him and we'll be fishing with him again! Don't just take my word for it though if you want to actually see what to expect go to "THINGS CHRIS DOES" on YouTube and you can see the entire experience from the time we got on the boat until he dropped us back off at our truck! First class all the way!!!

One hell of an experience. Yves was able to elevate a once in a lifetime fishing trip for white sturgeon into an action packed day full of some HUGE fish.

- Brandy Schmidt

I visited British Columbia to do a special type of fishing I'd never done before-- sturgeon fishing!
Seeing such a big fish on the end of my line jumping in the air was an indescribable feeling. This was definitely a bucket list experience that I'm really grateful to have had.

- Marlena Sokol

AMAZING!! I've never fished before, and now I get to say I've gone Sturgeon fishing!

Yves was incredible!! So much knowledge and passion behind what he does. I highly recommend this experience to anyone; families, friends, co-workers etc. Such a great outing.

It was magical and we had so much fun! Thanks Yves for an experience I will never forget.

- Sareena Nickoli

We recently embarked on a ‘bucket list’ three-day Sturgeon fishing trip with Yves Bisson, owner and operator of Yves Bisson Sturgeon Co. Operating out of Chilliwack and Hope, BC on the Fraser River – our trip with Yves was extraordinary.

Being a year-round fisherman, Yves possesses a most valuable understanding of the Fraser River. This, along with his skill and guiding knowledge provided us each the unmatched thrill of landing remarkable Sturgeon throughout our entire trip.

Yves commitment to the complete Sturgeon fishing experience was immediately evident.

In regards to us; paramount to Yves was our comfort and enjoyment. His boat, impeccably clean and powerful, ensured a smooth and comfortable ride as he navigated the river. Our fishing gear from the well-maintained rods, reels, waders, and boots to the perfectly chosen lines, hooks, sinkers and bait was all top quality. We were offered coffee and snacks, and he graciously allowed us to bring our own food and beverages of choice onboard. Yves proved to be an engaging companion, as well as our guide. His well-known photography talent allowed us to capture the thrill of landing our fish in real-time. The pictures he took and promptly shared with us added an extra layer of excitement to our experience.

In regards to these outstanding fish; so impressive is Yves' caring, concern, and obvious appreciation for the Sturgeon. He demonstrated a genuine commitment to the well-being of these exceptional creatures by ensuring each fish was measured and photographed quickly and carefully before being safely released. Yves' dedication to conservation and sustainability is commendable, and added to our respect and admiration for him as an outdoorsman and guide.

We wholeheartedly recommend Yves Bisson for an extraordinary Sturgeon fishing adventure. Yves' unrivaled expertise and complete understanding of the Fraser River, coupled with his commitment to excellence and top-of-the-line equipment, ensures a memorable and successful outing. Whether an experienced angler or novice – younger or older - a Sturgeon fishing trip with Yves Bisson on the picturesque Fraser River is an experience you don’t want to miss. Thank you, Yves, for an unforgettable trip!

Unforgettable day on the Fraser River. Ives was already waiting for us when we arrived on time at the pick up sight. After boarding his comfortable boat, Ives introduced himself gave us a run down of the safety aspects of the trip, showed us where the snacks and drinks were and we set out to our first fishing spot. The complimentary coffee was hot and much appreciated to sip on while you watch nature go by and listen to the boat purr away. At our first fishing spot Ives educates us on the ins and outs of catching sturgeon, baited the lines and out they went. Conversation was great while we waited for the bite. Ives is very knowledgable, easy going and passionate about his job! After not so long a time with no strikes we moved to the second spot. That’s when the fun really began! We first caught two small ones which are great practice for what is to come. You also get to see the microchipping process (if they don’t have one already) and learn about how they are measured, logged and tracked. Very interesting! The 3rd bite was the big one! The 7.5ft (2.25m) sturgeon fought hard and was quite a match! The jumps were amazing! After a 15 min matchup the fish was by the boat and Ives pulled to shore to be in shallow and calm waters for pictures. Through out the hole process Ives demonstrated a great respect for the sturgeon making sure it was the least stressed it could be while allowing you to enjoy the moment! Long story short (because google character limit, but i could go on and on) we caught 2 more bigs ones and missed two more! Ives is a professional in every sense! Make sure you spring for the included lunch! We had yummy sandwiches, pasta side, fruit, fresh cherries and dessert! Well worth it!

When my son said he wanted to catch a sturgeon for his graduation gift I began researching. I was recommended to Yves by another Canadian fisherman. Boy am I thankful! Yves was a professional from the moment we arrived. His boat was immaculate and organized. We just showed up and caught fish. It was an incredible day! Hands down one of the best experiences of our lives. He came prepared with coffee, snacks and we were off. Within the first hour, my son had caught his dream fish! Such an emotional day. We had the best time! The scenery was beautiful. Yves taught us about Canadian wildlife, the sturgeons. He is very respectful of the beautiful creatures you are catching. He takes the pictures and videos for you. He is a professional all around and a nice guy! He is worth every penny. Just do it! We plan to go back again. We only did a one-day trip, but we all had such a fantastic time we plan to go back for a two day fishing trip.

- Rachel Boaz

One of my fathers bucket list items has always been to catch a large Sturgeon in the Fraser river.

Despite my fathers limited mobility, Yves made every effort to accommodate and ensure we had the experience we were after.

Personable, professional and most important of all a fantastic guide.

I would highly recommend you reach out to Yves if you are interested in Sturgeon fishing. His approach and philosophy has created cherished memories for me and my father that we will never forget.

- James Young

I didn't think that this was something for me to put on my bucket list, but I'm so glad to have had the opportunity to go on such an amazing adventure. I can't just give one great part of the experience as the entire day was an amazing experience of a lifetime. Yves was more than amazing...kind, welcoming, a wealth of knowledge, informative, friendly, organized, professional, great equipment.....the list could go on forever. I will say though, that nearing the end of the day, we were mighty exhausted. Thank you Yves for such a great adventure. By the way, we brought in four biggies during our trip. (Lea)

I did the booking for this trip for my husband and a friend of his. Yves was so prompt in answering all of my questions no matter how silly some may have sounded. I felt very confident that Yves was the person to book through...and with a guarantee, how could I not. Thank you Yves for making this exhilarating day so memorable for the guys!!! (Sue)

If you are looking for an adventure of a lifetime...you need to book with Yves Bisson Sturgeon Company....he is definitely the best there is. Very highly recommended!!!

- Lea Philips

I went on a 2 day fishing trip with 4 other guys with yves and, I can confidently say, this is the best fishing trip to go on. Firstly, yves is a great guy and an extremely professional guide. In 2 days, we caught 15 fish and each person got a fish over 7ft. The thing about fishing with yves is that people with all kinds of fishing experience can go and enjoy this trip. Yves will explain how to set the hook, fight/reel in the fish and then take the perfect picture. Another reason to go on this trip is that yves can get you big fish consistently even in bad weather conditions making this a trip to go on year round. I have nothing negative to say about this trip and will definitely be back myself. Thank you yves.

- Dj Zeran

Absolutely amazing. Yves is a real professional. Very open to share his knowledge and appreciation of the amazing Fraser River monster sturgeon. Unreal experience.

- John Labatt

Yves was such a treat to fish with, and really, truly amazing! I honestly cannot say enough nice things about this guy! Thanks Yves!!!! You rock!

- Mikayla More O'Ferrall

I just want to thank Yves for such a great day fishing with my boy and some of his best lacrosse brothers. We took a chance fishing in the winter. With that said Yves has got it wired. I grew up in the Florida Keys and several of my childhood friends guide and so having a little insight I was very impressed with Yves whole approach with technique and educating his charter while, having a awesome day at fishing. We hooked 8 fish and landed and released 6 which added up to a bucket list day with my boys.

- Ben Laird

Spent the afternoon with Yves and I can genuinely say this was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. Yves was so knowledgable of the region, professional and an amazing guide. he taught us technique, conservation and the ins and outs of the river. No ego. This made my first time fishing sturgeon so fun and set us up perfectly for a successful afternoon.

We ended up catching 2x 250lb and 1x 300lb+ and a double header!!

Yves boat and equipment was top notch, he was ready for us with coffee and everything we needed. We stepped on the boat and got right into it.

10/10 will be back next year!!

- Sean Panton

Always a blessing to go fishing with Yves, thanks for the great time

- John MacDonald

This guy is a legend! He went threw hell or high water to catch us monster fish in December for a trip of a life time!
Only boat on the water this time of year.
Fishing the frozen Fraser!

- JAK Septic

No amount of words can ever describe the experience Yves provided for us. Having booked our trip in the winter we were met with snow storms and almost impassible weather our entire drive. Once we arrived we were greeted with frozen rivers and extreme ice build up.. let’s just say we were a bit doubtful that we would be able to put a boat in the water let alone go fishing. Worried we would have to rebook we called Yves in advance and he said if we wanted to go he would make it happen! Standing at the boat launch bundled up and spirits raised we hopped aboard the boat and off we went! With the freezing temperatures creating its own unique set of challenges Yves seemed to have a solution for everything making sure we were safe and well informed at all times. After a scenic ride filled with eagles, seals and every migratory bird imaginable we arrived at the honey hole and proceeded to catch giant after giant! We landed multiple fish over 7ft. Between the three of us we got 10 fish and only one of them was under 6ft! Not only that we had two double headers multiple bites and a few lost fish! Absolutely unbelievable day of fishing! I couldn’t have asked for a more memorable experience!

Will be booking with Yves for years to come and would highly recommend him!

- Chace S

Yves Bisson Is King of Sturgeon.What an amazing experience from the moment we stepped onto the boat. As a 1st timer I didn't know what to expect but this trip did not disappoint! By the time we had finished we caught 5 sturgeon over 7 feet & 1 over 8. The lunch was fantastic and very unexpected. Fantastic day we will be back many more times, 5 stars.

- jordan mickler

- Curtis Peters

I have to say Yves knows his stuff and is deffinetly the best guide out there.
He's straight to the point and really takes the time to show you the proper form and believe me, Your gonna need the form to bring in these monsters of a fish. He really cares about the sturgeon and makes sure they are taken care of exceptionally well!

Overall Yves you are amazing at what you do and it was a pleasure to fish with you, How he can tell when a fish is on and not something else is amazing just listen to the guy he knows his stuff!!

Book a fishing trip with him don't bother looking around he's the guy 👍

- Sean H

What a great day! Holy smokes ! Hooked all 5 of us up with excellent fish and a phenomenal meal! So cool to be out on the water and catch these giants! Yves took such good care of us and the fish, which was excellent to see such conservation and care for sturgeon! Highly recommend

- Michael Funk

Wow! What an absolute blast it was to hangout with yves! I would like to say first and foremost what an absolute professional, you can tell this is what he lives for! I feel like I actually walked away with alot of information and wasn't shy to ask any sort of questions. We had a group of 5 people fishing and we all managed to get one to the boat! He treated us well and was very friendly. Also his cooking is absolutely amazing!

All in all a great experience would highly recommend for anyone that is experienced or completely unexperienced in the fishing world!

I tip my hat to ya sir!

- Clayton Russell Media

Top shelf Yves - thanks for a great day and a fabulous experience! I appreciated you taking the time to explain about the sturgeon. It was great to watch the tagging process and see the care you have for these magnificent fish.

- lynn delange

We are have currently finished our second of 3 days on the water with Yves. I have fished in many places, with many guides—many of them top notch—but this has been our best trip ever. Everything about the trip has been phenomenal, and the rating should be much higher then 5 stars, but I can’t give him 6,7 or 8 stars—I would if I could. If you are a serious fisherman, this is a must do. Until today, I’ve never have a guide apologize to me for putting me on too many big fish. Yves actually said “I’m sorry” as we were struggling epically to bring in our 8th monster sturgeon of the day, after 8 the day before. Nuff said. Yves is The Man!

- Richard Tax

Yves Bisson is the best guide on the Fraser River. We only caught big fish all over 6'. Thanks for the trip Yves. Cheers.

- Andy Admiraal

This fishing trip with Yves was a 50th birthday gift from my wife and son. Yves not only exceeded our expectations but gave us a day dreams are made of. Yves was friendly and professional and has clearly dedicated himself to his craft. Even more impressive was Yves’ reverence and respect for these magnificent fish. I hope I am lucky enough to fish with Yves again. Trip of a lifetime.

- Colin Magee

Yves Bisson is the most professional fishing guide I have ever had the pleasure of fishing with!
His care and attention for conservation and professionalism shines thru during the entire experience.
Such a great day out on the Fraser with Yves learning about these amazing fish and enjoying an amazing day on the water! His passion for these incredible fish is second to none.
Awesome fishing, Excellent lunch, and all around great day with one Outstanding guide!

If you want a once in a lifetime experience fishing the world's best "Westcoast River Monsters", you have to book with the best, Yves Bisson Srurgeon Co. is the way to go!

- Derek Matthews

Incredible trip! Battled record high flows and bad weather to put fish in the boat.

When no one else was catching, Yves had us in nothing but monsters!

Will be back again 100%!

- Patrick Pozzi

You will not find a more comfortable excursion. Yves took great care of 2, 75+ year old men and yet caught great fish. A big thank you to Yves. His experience is worth the wait

- Jace Ball

What an incredible day!! It rained most of the day and it didn't even matter. Yves has a covered area of the boat that keeps you warm and dry while you're waiting for those sturgeon to hook. We caught a few big ones and he makes sure to take some amazing photos of you and your catch,. He also puts on a quite the delicious spread of food. The day did not disappoint!

- Ashley

Yves Bisson Is a Sturgeon Master! What an amazing experience from the moment we stepped onto the boat. Not knowing what to expect but excited to be out on the Fraser River, this trip did not disappoint! It was rainy and stormy, the river was swirling, yet Yves new where to go! By the time we were done we had landed 4 sturgeon & lost 2. The lunch prepared for us was great under the Kilby Train Bridge - as we pulled up anchor to leave - the train went by! Yves couldn’t have timed the moments any better, from the Mossy oak steps into the forest, from the first catch to the last - it was 8 hours of pure bliss! Thank you for a day we will be talking about for years! A Number one Guide - 5 star experience, don’t hesitate to book with Yves.

- S. Hunter

I have not been out with a more knowledgeable, more genuine guide. Knows the best spots for the most volume & the largest fish. If it’s your 1st or 10th time, Yves is the man! Thank you again.

- Brendon Hall

While on my own in BC on my first travel nursing assignment I made a last minute decision to book a trip of a lifetime. While on my lunch break at work I was day dreaming of catching big sturgeon. I regularly seen Yves amazing photos and videos on social media and knew he guided out of the Fraser river. I thought “maybe he’s close to where I am?” I did a quick search and I was literally a 5 minute drive away ! I sent an email and it was all planned and booked by the next day, I was so excited! The day couldn’t have been any better, after a beautiful boat ride out Yves gave me a run down on how to use the gear correctly. He baited the hooks and cast them out; within the first 10 minutes it was game on! I couldn’t believe what I reeled in after a tough fight. Yves quickly assured me that I would catch a bigger fish than that, and he was right! Each time we set new bait I hardly had time to catch my breath before another fish was on the line. It’s no easy thing to reel in these monsters and Yves helped me along the way with tips on how to improve my technique to ensure I could conserve my energy and win each battle. With each fish he took a surplus of amazing photos and videos for me. While riding to the next hot spot he answered my many questions about these creatures and his major contribution to the conservation of the species. The afternoon flew by after landing 7 sturgeon and I was over the moon! I hope to come back and enjoy this experience again some day soon! With Yves’s guidance anyone is sure to land an amazing fish no matter if you’ve been fishing all your life or if it is your first time on the river!

- Carlie Geres

For the third time, I took this wonderful sturgeon fishing trip with Yves Bisson on the Fraser River. Yves is indeed the Sturgeon Whisperer. He knows his river and he knows his fish. He exudes confidence from the moment you step into his cozy boat. I say cozy but you hardly need to be inside the warm cabin when there is so much action outside. Yves provides everything you need; his tackle is of the finest quality. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Just go and do it. It has to be one of the finest outdoor experiences in British Columbia, and that is saying a lot.

- Doug Pollard

What an unreal experience. Yves was super capable, professional and knowledgeable about the fish and the area. We were bringing in massive 6ft+ fish all day, and we saw Yves handle of all the Sturgeon with extreme care. 11/10 day on the river

- Ian Walker

Absolutely Incredible day of fishing. Yves is one of the best charters I’ve ever fished with. Very professional and knowledgeable about the Fraser River Sturgeon Fishery and conscious of conservation for the future of Sturgeon fishing. Top Notch all around book now you will not be disappoint I will be back FOR SURE!!!

- Jonathan Kuzyk

booked a 2-day winter fishing trip in February, some of the best fishing I have experienced on the Fraser, thanks to Yves. We landed some beautiful White Sturgeon fishing the Fraser and Harrison River. Caught lots of fish in the 6-8' range, largest was 8'4" and didn't have a tag in it. Very cool to see the tagging program and Yves does a great job of explaining the process and the science behind it all. The boat, tackle, and Yves's expertise really makes the whole fishing experience one you will not forget. looking forward to booking another trip in the future.

- Stuart Kotowich

I wish I could give more than 5 stars!! This trip and our guide blew all of our expectations out of the water!! From the moment we got on the boat he instantly put us at ease. Such a fun and action packed fishing trip! We landed 2 sturgeon; the first being 6’7 the second 8’8! It was definitely hard work reeling those dinosaurs in, but the coaching and encouragement helped so much! The bonus was how dedicated Yves was to make sure we got the most epic pictures to remember our trip. We will definitely be booking again! Thank you so much, 24 hours later and we still can’t wipe the smiles off of our faces!!

- Kimberly P.

We had an incredible day with Yves. He is professional, knowledgeable, and knows how to find the fish. You won’t regret booking a trip with Yves Bisson Sturgeon Co. I’ll definitely be booking with Him for our next sturgeon trip.

- Peter Bismeyer

Yves took my boy and I out sturgeon fishing. Yves made the experience so remarkable due to his experience, professionalism, respect for the water and more importantly, the sturgeons. With this, Yves showed us an amazing experience and somehow managed to show us sturgeons from 3' long to 10' long! If you are looking for a guide with professionalism, sturgeon knowledge and a genuine passion for sturgeon, who also ended up being a fabulous chef, then Yves Bisson Sturgeon Co. is the place to go for an amazing experience.

- Rob Macdonald

Our work hired Yves to take us out on his guided tours of the Fraser River to Fish Sturgeon. He was on time and right away we all felt comfortable in his boat. Lots of space and very nice boat.

We travelled up river and anchored quick. On our second anchor we had hooked a monster fish and it was the fight of my life. After that everyone got a turn on the rod and all 5 of us were bringing fish in. It was an unbelievable experience.

Yves is extremely knowledgeable, personable, professional, and fun. He has a strong passion for his business and the environment. He handles every fish safely and plays a huge part in the well being/ tracking of these prehistoric monsters and their eco system.

All the odds were against him, However nothing phased him.

  • Covid protocols
  • very high water with tons of debris
  • high winds
  • nowhere to go on shore

With all these difficult circumstances every one of us was able to fish and bring a sturgeon to the boat. He knew exactly where to go, how to fish, and we all learned so much from him. He put on a top notch bbq lunch. The best meal I’ve had in a while.

I’ve been sturgeon fishing a few times but this time was unreal. I’ve never seen so many fish caught in such a short time. I would recommend Yves to anyone looking to sturgeon fish. I am very excited to go back on the boat with him.

Thank you Yves.

- Jeremy Bunn

Well, our long weekend of showing a friend from Ontario the province of BC is over and the highlight remains our evening with Yves Bisson on the Fraser River. Yves is the epitome of excellence when it comes to a Sturgeon guide, with his knowledge of the fish, river he simply is the best in the industry in every way possible. I cant recommend Yves enough if you are the most seasoned of fisherman or a complete rookie he will provide you with everything you need to succeed and have the trip of a lifetime! Thanks again Yves, we will see you again soon!

- Around The World MMA

Excellent guide , very knowledgeable and friendly. Educated us in the history and conservation of this fishery and truly puts the fish and its survival first.

We had two double headers and landed three out of 6 fish. Largest was a 350 lb 8’4” sturgeon that had never been tagged. We were hooked. Other two landed fish were 5 and 6 feet and around 140 lbs. lost a small and one that would have competed for the top weight along with one around two hundred pounds.

Aside from sore arms it was a very enjoyable 4 hour charter. We realize that the result we got is not always going to happen but Yves knows what he is doing and the results speak for themselves. We all recommend him highly. Before you book anywhere else you owe it to yourself to give him a call. All equipment and boat was as he said - comfortable and in great order.

- Cal Shaw

The best guided sturgeon fishing experience at the mighty Fraser River. Our group had the most amazing time with Yves and it was about the education we took home with us, not to mention the sore arms, that will last many stories to shared with friends and family. We shall return.

- Winson Chan

We got 3 fish over 8 feet in 1 day!!! Epic, epic, epic !!!! Can't wait to book for next year

- Bradley Rose

I have gone twice with Yves and he is an amazing guide! He is a very hospitable and light hearted! I will definitely be going with him again!

In the end, they had a trip full of memories that they will never forget and they are very thankful to Yves!

I went sturgeon fishing with my Dad and brother last April, Yves was our guide. He took us out to some nice quiet but active fishing areas. He was friendly and very knowledgeable about sturgeons. I would recommend booking a trip with Yves and would love to go again someday, it was an awesome experience.

- Jordana Clark

If you are looking for the experience of a lifetime. Look no further!
Fun for all ages. Yves is able to find the little fish for the kids and the large, adult sturgeon for the adults that think they are up for the challenge.

- Glen B

All I can say is WOW. Yves was well-prepared, knowledgeable and a good time! We caught some BIG fish, and Yves helped us capture some great moments as well! Thank you SO much for this experience! It’s something we will remember forever.

- Cheyenne Schaller

We just came back from vacation in Vancouver/Whistler and our trip started with the most unique and sureal fishing day. After some research done by my son, we decided to go fishing for the white sturgeon in the Fraser River area with Yves Bisson. I have to say that the experience was the highlight of our trip. Snow and freezing rain was on the menu but it didn’t stop Yves from showing us how to catch this beauty. I have to say that most importantly, we have met a very passionate man that is implicated in the conservation of this monster fish. We have learned so much and we will be back for sure! Thanks again!

- BC Wild

We absolutely loved our two days with Yves! He set the tone with a take your time vibe but still was so eager to show us the experience of sturgeon fishing. He gave us pointers as we hooked onto fish and shared his wealth of experience in the craft.
He cooked incredible lunches and really had everything to accommodate us in the boat. Heat in the main area was so cozy! Thank you for a great couple days.

- Dani G

Fantastic trip with an incredible guide. Yves is definitely a master of his craft. Our days in Yves boat were as enjoyable as they come. Can't wait to do it again.

- Paul H

Unbelieveable experience. I've been lucky enough to spend a lot of time fishing, guiding fishermen and a part of the hospitality business. Yves is perhaps the finest example of a guide who understands what the profession truly means. He makes the days fun, the details are crisp from first contact through the drop off back at the ramp. Equipment and boat are kept spotless. Lunch was an amazing spread. Fishing knowledge lead him to plan and execute our day to match the ever changing conditions. It's all in the the details in this business, Yves has this covered. They day is made before the first fish bites. Watch him, he is engaged all day not sitting on the phone or daydreaming, paying full attention to how your day can be the best possible.

- Jason H

Had one of the best days on the river. Yves knowledge, professionalism and experience put him in the top tier of guides. We could not have had a better time, we loved every minute of the trip.

- Brad N

Yves was incredible - Hand's down the best experience I've ever had on the river. Yves went the extra mile to make it an amazing day for our family. His knowledge and expertise shined as he guided us through a great day. We will make it a point to go every year from now on and only use Yves.

- Mike E

We came out for a father son sturgeon trip with Yves Bisson. What a trip it was!! In 2 days we were kept hopping bringing in some of the biggest fish we had ever caught. Nothing under 5 ‘7” and many many over 7’. It was very nice to be part of the conservation with checking for tags and even tagging one of our own. Super knowledgeable and easy going. A definite return trip!!!

- Darryl Rempel

I can't thank Yves enough for the past 2 days of fishing. As a relatively inexperienced angler I was both excited and intimated by the idea of catching giant Sturgeon. Yves was patient and an incredible teacher. He made the whole experience comfortable and extremely fun. Fighting the Sturgeon was wild and I would recommend Yves as a guide to anyone. His experience and passion showed. Also he captured great photos for us so we can relive the memories over and over. I cannot say enough good things about Yves or this experience. We are already trying to plan out next trip with him.

- Kmahl

Yves took myself, Dad, brother and nephew out and we couldn’t have had a better day. We had fish that my nephew(9 years old) could reel in from start to finish and we had some that he needed help on and some where we needed his help! It was an experience that all of us will never forget! To top it off, Yves it literally one of a kind who makes you feel at home on his boat and also feels like part of the group. If you are looking for a great trip with family and friends, no need to look any further. Great trip! Thanks Yves

- Tim G

My Friend and I was looking for adrenaline. So we tried differents activities during our trip in British Columbia. But the best part of the week was the fishing trip. We go out of our confort zone. We only book 4 hours, but Yves found the best fishing spots. We caught 3 Giant sturgeons ! I highly recommend this fishing trip for everybody .
Thanks again Yves !

- michael

All I can say is WOW!! The best trip ever!!
Yves our guide is so knowledgeable and friendly.
We where able to catch 6 sturgeon all over 7 feet in one trip. What a beautiful day with beautiful scenery . Mother Nature at its best!!!
Highly recommend!

- Melinda

Best fishing experience of my life. Landed some monsters with the best fishing guide around! Thank you, Yves!

- Kane L

Having never been fishing before, I did not know what to expect. Hands down one of the best experiences I've had. Yves is a great host, fantastic guide, knowledgeable and passionate about sturgeon and the preservation of our fish (and sturgeon happen to be the most stunning creatures when you get upfront with them). You get to see BC's backyard in a totally different and amazing way. Super fun and enjoyable day.

- Alanadj

Alright so ladies and gentlemen, this guy is the real deal. I went out on July 15th with my dad that I hadn't seen in years. Yves knew what he was doing, a second nature kind of thing. He brought us on to some big fish, explained how this whole thing worked precisely and efficiently. We caught 4 fish, missed maybe 4 and had nibbles over 20 times during the day. 91", 90", 85" and 50". It was the experience of a life time and I'll be grateful to Yves forever. Hopefully I will get to go back out with him again. Book your trip, you won't regret it.

- Vincent Picotin

My two sons and 9 year old grandson had a fantastic day sturgeon fishing with Yves.

My grandson caught 3 smaller ones by himself and we topped that off with a 5.5 footer and an 8 footer. That was enhanced by a delicious lunch on the shore.

Yves is a great host and I would recommend him to anyone.

- Harry G

What an excellent way to spend a day. Our group had an amazing time with Yves Bisson Sturgeon Co on the Fraser River. Plenty of sturgeon and an incredible lunch was provided. Top-notch experience!

- Erin C

Absolutely amazing afternoon! Yves is an excellent guide and makes sure your day on the river is well worth your dollar. He teaches you well and is very friendly and easy to talk too. Couldn't have had a better time!

- Isabelle F

Absolutely amazing experience going out with Yves. Guide like no other with actual experience and deep knowledge of sturgeons and their feeding patterns.

- Steven Kouwen

Yves is a great guide. Took us (a group of first time anglers) to the right spots and we could have at least one fish every hour of the entire day. Also we got the big ones.
It was really beyond expectations as we never thought it would be on our first time that we would be blessed with the big fishes.

Also, the BBQ was amazing. Very delicious and having a great variety of food.

Thanks for the great experience, Yves.

- Jonatas Gomes

I bought this trip for my dad and husband for Father’s Day and they had a absolute blast! Yves was fun and knowledgable about the sturgeon. 10/10 would recommend! Will 100% be back.

- Hailey H

My family and I went out for an evening trip with Yves and it was absolutely incredible. He was so accommodating and made sure everyone had the best time, even our 9 month old baby.

I have been on many guided fishing trips and this one was by far the best. 100% recommend to anyone interested in going out for these incredible fish to boom with Yves.

Thanks for the incredible memories and can’t wait to get out again!!

- Hans Andersen

Definitely recommend for anyone who loves the thrill of BIG fish! Went out with Yves last week and it was an incredible experience. He was an excellent guide and a gentleman. Shore lunch was delicious, the scenery was beautiful, and the fishing was insane!!!
World class fishing!

- Kate F.

My first experiance with Yves on the mighty Fraser River was a 10/10 experiance. Out of the dozen or so times i've been with different guides over the years this experiance tops them all. I Highly recommend booking Yves. The coolest highlight besides the giants we caught and the spectacular BBQ lunch was catching a fish tagged 20+ years ago and its still healthy and well! finished the day with back to back 8'1" & 8'2" 9 total caught. Thank you again Yves! next time we'll forsure bring our wives out.

- Kris Howes

Great day out on the river.

Yves is a pro. Not only at fishing but at hosting the whole experience. We had a great day out on the river. Caught 9 sturgeon in total and 2 of them were over 8' long. Yves is the sturgeon whisperer and seems to know exactly where they will be and what the best conditions are to catch a monster. Lunch was a feast and I'm wishing for seconds today.

I would highly recommend this trip to anyone and will likely be trying to book Yves again when my in-laws come for a visit.

- Brad Howes

We absolutely loved our two days with Yves! He set the tone with a take your time vibe but still was so eager to show us the experience of sturgeon fishing. He gave us pointers as we hooked onto fish and shared his wealth of experience in the craft.

- Danielle Grunberg

Yves is a true professional, both at the guiding and fishing aspect of your adventure as well as hospitality side. Pre trip arrangements, a plan for the days fishing, it is all thought out and executed surgically. The gear is top notch, the lunch spread was actually 6 stars and he's just a fun guy to share the boat with. We also caught many great fish...but the trip was already made.

- Jason Hamilton

I can't say enough about Yves and the world class sturgeon fishery in the Fraser River.

In terms of fishing Yves tailored our trip to our personal goals. We had awesome action throughout the day and big fish.

As a guide Yves was very personable, patient and knowledgeable. It is apparent that Yves decades of experience are being used day in and day out to keep his guests catching fish year round. Was also refreshing to see Yves great fish handling skills and passion for preserving this unbelievable fishery.

I highly recommend giving Yves a call to book your trip of a lifetime. I am already rebooking.

Cheers

Wow, where to being... What an incredible day on the water with Yves Bisson Sturgeon Co.

Yves was very attentive, informative and provides a fun atmosphere on the water. My family will have life long memories and stories for years to come. 9 sturgeon in 8 hours all between 6-8 feet long...

Yves not only knows the hot spots but most importantly cares for the river and the sustainability of the species. Highly recommend.

- Tim Erickson

An unreal experience! Yves had us all laughing and catching fish, definitely booking again, hopefully sooner rather than later.

- Carter Proudfoot

The best guided sturgeon fishing experience at the mighty Fraser River. Our group had the most amazing time with Yves and it was about the education we took home with us, not to mention the sore arms, that will last many stories to shared with friends and family. We shall return.

- Winston Chan

If you are looking for a fishing trip of a lifetime you are in the right place! I’ve done a lot of fishing and met thousands of people but Yves truly stands out to me. Yves does everything in his power to ensure you have a trip to remember. I was lucky enough to book a 2 day trip with Yves and I’ll be the first to say it he goes above and beyond for his clients. He provided us with incredible fishing and was extremely helpful with anything and everything. Aside from the world class fishing he also provided us with an absolutely incredible shore lunch right on the river! He does a fantastic job about teaching his clients proper fish handling and the amazing conservation efforts he and his fellow guides participate in to study the incredible giant sturgeon he’s known for! No matter your skill Yves will make sure you land that fish of a lifetime.

- Rylan P

Yves Bisson Sturgeon Co. is the best there is! Yves was an awesome host and guide who put us onto several in the 7-8 ft range. He knows the best areas and is a wealth of information and entertaining stories too. I've been on a lot of Sturgeon fishing trips and this was by far the best!

- David R

Very respectful to the fish.
A real authentic Chilliwack experience.
Great views of the Cheam Mt. Range.
Doesn't matter if you don't fish.
The Sturgeon are beautiful.

- Trevor B

Our company had four different fishing excursions booked with Yves Bisson and each and every one of the groups had the same reaction - this guy is the best! He's so knowledgeable about the sturgeon and their habitat and is sensitive to their well being. We had lots of people in our groups that had never fished before and Yves was so helpful in making us feel at ease. The lunch he cooked up for us was delicious as well. If you're nervous about anything in regards to going on this adventure let me put your mind at ease - you will be well taken care of! We're already looking forward to our trips next year and would highly recommend him to any company looking to do a little team building.

- Anita S

First, let me tell you about Yves. He is the kind of man you want as a friend. He is hard-working, kind, funny, and can give and take a joke. Beyond that, he is a man of integrity who knows the industry and has a high level of respect for sturgeon and for fishing as a whole.

I would recommend anyone to go fishing with Yves. This trip was my first sturgeon fishing experience. We were only out for a quick 4-hour trip and caught 2 sturgeon over 8 feet long and 300 lbs. At that time (my buddy) also caught a 3-foot 'little guy!'

We had a phenomenal time and my arms are still felling it! Thanks, Yves. Can't wait to go again.

- Rob C

No better guide for sturgeon on the Fraser! Yves is incredibly knowledgeable, so helpful while learning, and ensures you have an amazing time on his boat. Not to mention the amazing food he serves for lunch, it’s truly gourmet. Such a down to earth, chill, and positive guy. You will catch amazing fish, and have the absolute best time doing it. This is a trip of a lifetime!!! Can’t express my gratitude and thanks enough to Yves for our experience.

- Krista T

Yves went above and beyond my expectations, he’s an incredible guide. His attention to detail and love for what he does really shows everyday we were on the water. He’s extremely knowledgeable and a pleasure to be around. I will be continuing to come back for many years to come. 10/10 fishing experience.

- Ryan M

Yves was an extremely knowledgeable Guide with an admirable respect for the giant Sturgeon of the Fraser River. He was very attentive to the smallest details and worked very hard to make our experience memorable from start to finish, which also Included breath taking scenery & wildlife. My husband and I had a GREAT day & recommend Yves to anyone wanting the BEST time & BEST Guide

- Sherry R.

Not my first time out with Yves and won't be my last! He is a true master of his craft and his commitment to conservation and the well being of the sturgeon is very evident. I took my 8 year old son along and he helped me reel in a monster over 7 feet long. What great memories, and Yves captured some great photos for us to take home. We will be back for more.

- Marcel B

Best fishing trip of my life...brought my 13 year old daughter and she was blown away...we landed 5 Sturgeon..had to request a smaller one for my daughter to reel in...Yves is extremely proffessional and changed bait and 10 minutes later brought in a Sturgeon my daughter could handle...Sturgeon fishing is not just for guys...it can be a family bonding event...my daughter will NEVER forget her day of fishing and I highly recommend bringing your kids for lifetime memories...super guide...super day...thanks Yves

- John M

Yves was such an amazing guide, very professional from time of booking until the trip was finished. We had such a great day on the river, caught 6 massive sturgeon and enjoyed every minute of our day:) he’s full of knowledge and taught us so much. We will definitely be booking with him again!

- Christy F

My 13 yr old son and I went out with Yves on a four hour evening trip. I have been on a significant number of guided fishing trips and Yves tops them all. Very educational yet always interesting. Excellent instruction for technique to land this amazing fish. We will return. Book a trip with Yves, you won’t be disappointed.

- Steve Tycon

This guy knows his stuff. If you just want the best day on the river with a real pro, knowable friendly and a great coach ! Highly recommend! Call me anything for a review!

- Ray Yenkana

My husband and I along with my parents who were visiting us from Northern BC, shared an evening out on the river guided by Yves. If you're a seasoned fisherman or never touched a rod - I highly recommend a day out with Yves! He naturally caters to your experience and provides the most relaxing yet exciting several hours on the river! I promise you, you will not be disappointed! 11/10.

- Stephanie Kampman

Our day of fishing sturgeon with Yves was by far the best experience I've had on a boat. I've been on multiple guided trips before and I won't ever book with anyone other than Yves going forward. He was first class the entire way. He cares DEEPLY about the well-being of the river, the fish, and the integrity of the sport. He exudes knowledge and does an incredible job teaching and instructing all on board to maximize our experience. Finally, he takes such care and attention when documenting the trip when it comes to videos and photos. He captured group shots of our day that we will cherish for a lifetime. Thanks Yves!!!

- Scott Erickson

Having never been fishing before, I did not know what to expect. Hands down one of the best experiences I've had. Yves is a great host, fantastic guide, knowledgeable and passionate about sturgeon and the preservation of our fish (and sturgeon happen to be the most stunning creatures when you get upfront with them). You get to see BC's backyard in a totally different and amazing way. Super fun and enjoyable day.

- Alana Dale-Johnson

Our group had an incredible day with Yves Bisson Sturgeon Co! My first time sturgeon fishing ever and it was an experience of a lifetime! Yves is an amazing guide. He brings years of knowledge and experience of guiding on the Fraser and is very professional and passionate about sturgeon. We hooked 8 and landed 5. The biggest was a whopping 9’8”! He runs a quality, top-notch operation. Can’t say enough about the amazing day we had while also taking in such stunning scenery. Beautiful BC at its finest. Highly recommended to anyone looking for an unforgettable experience. Will definitely be booking again.

- Scott Park

Our family just spent a day on the Fraser fishing sturgeon, guided by Yves Bisson. Totally amazing day...some of the best memories we've made as a family. I highly recommend Yves! With over 20 years experience on the Fraser he is a very knowledgeable and skilled guide. He knows where the fish are and how to get them. Even for some of us with little or no experience he helped us learn and created a memorable day for all of us!

- alain friesen

Yves was extremely knowledgeable and efficient. We did a half day (afternoon) and caught 3 massive fish! (7’8, 8’2, and 8’5). Every fish was scanned and recorded. He’s all about the experience and making the Sturgeon fish have the least amount of discomfort as possible. Will be booking again!!!

- Greg Neufeld

What a day! Unbelievably good family trip out on the Fraser with Yves and definitely got into some huge sturgeon. Yves is super knowledgeable about everything sturgeon and a gentlemen to boot. We did more catching than fishing which is always what you want. Top notch experience....will certainly be back.

- Glenn Bandstra

This was the fishing experience we always wanted but never had. Yves was an absolute pro and first class to deal with. His knowledge of the river and his willingness to go the extra mile was second to none. I HIGHLY recommend Yves and will hands down be back every year. Cheers Yves, thanks for making that day so memorable for our family.

- Mike Erickson

What an experience! Just got back from a full day of slaying monsters with Yves Bisson. Could not ask for a better guide or experience.. Yves is an absolute pro who goes to great lengths to deliver an amazing guest experience. He knows where the fish are, what bait to use, and his lunch provided is exceptional. Thank you Yves, can't wait to get back out with you!

- Andrew Bracewell

Great guide, great fishing & great family fun!
What a great experience we had with Yves sturgeon fishing on the Fraser River. He was a very knowledgeable guide, we had a very successful trip and the family just loved it. This was my Mother’s Day gift and I will definitely be booking again for next year!

- Sarah Eckersley

Unbelievable trip today with Yves Bisson Sturgeon Co. Boat was in the water and loaded with snacks hot coffee on time when we arrived. Everyone in the boat caught a sturgeon, biggest was 8'9". Yves was very professional and very knowledgeable. Willing to teach and a great sense of humour. Will definitely return

- Michael Lane, Local Guide

We had an amazing time fishing with Yves! He is very educated about the river and the fish and was an awesome guide! We were celebrating our dads 60th birthday and we told Yves we had to get him a big one, he definitely did not disappoint!! Highly recommend taking a trip with Yves!! Thanks for celebrating with us and making it a memorable one!! We will be back!!

- Stephanie Thiessen

Yves gave us a wonderful day on the Fraser River. A professional guide who knows how to give his cliënts a day to remember.
Friendly, helping and good advice, a super bbq on the boat and doing his best to let you catch your dream sturgeon. Thanks Yves!!

- Erik van Mersbergen

What an experience! The service, preparation, treatment, guidance and education was amazing. Yves goes above and beyond just dropping lines in the water and sitting around waiting for something to happen, his understanding of the river placed us on the fish and resulted in a full day of action packed fishing. Already thinking about when we will do this next. Can't recommend Yves enough, you won’t be disappointed!

- Steven Mjoen

Yves took my husband and my oldest boy out sturgeon fishing. Yves made the experience so remarkable due to his experience, professionalism, respect for the water and more importantly, the sturgeons. With this, Yves showed them, an amazing experience and somehow managed to show them sturgeons from 3' long to 10' long! If you are looking for a guide with professionalism, sturgeon knowledge and a genuine passion for sturgeon, who also ended up being a fabulous chef, then Yves Bisson Sturgeon Co. is the place to go for an amazing experience.

- Lauren Macdonald

Yves is an awesome guide. He is passionate and super knowledgeable about sturgeons. I was lucky to have Yves as a guide during my volunteering day to tag, catch, and release juvenile white sturgeons. Out of all the boats that were out that day, our boat caught the most fish!

- Kendall McLaughlin

With a few game fishing trips under our belts, my husband and I conquer that the guide makes the trip. We were in such good hands with Yves Bisson who offered us the fishing adventure of a lifetime. As a guide for 20+ years, Yves is a professional with a wealth of knowledge about the Fraser River and white sturgeon. His top notch gear, story telling of the area and conservation efforts are second to none.
We were there for big game sports fishing, and we did just that and more! Yves knew exactly where to drop the anchor for monster sturgeon. Not only did we catch a 5 footer and 7 footer, but he allowed us to set the hook while guiding us through the technical skill to fight the monster sturgeon for minutes on end. All day we saw even larger sturgeon catching air in the distance. After an action packed morning, we docked on a beautiful and secluded sandbank for a delicious 4-course BBQ lunch.
His passion for conservation was evident in how he respected the water and the life within it. In fact, he is one of 20 people who are responsible for tagging and documenting the sturgeon in the river. It was an honour to be included in the documentation as he invited us to scan the sturgeon’s tags and record their numbers.
Thank you Yves, we will be back!

- Parsoua Shirzad

Amazing time on this full day experience on the Fraser River. First, you couldn’t find a better guide!! Seriously, Yves was absolutely amazing and he has such respect for the sturgeon and makes you feel so comfortable. 200% recommend! To top it off we caught so many fish and felt safe and looked after every moment. Even I was able to bring in a sturgeon and everyone with us!! Can’t recommend enough!! This would make an amazing girls trip!!! A must do, even when you are local!

- Gayle Corah

Here’s the most important thing, Yves loves fish, the environment, and what he does. His passion comes out when he speaks as he will explain what he’s doing, teach you about the environment, and also coach your through catching these INSANELY POWERFUL fish the way a teacher should. He will equip you will the tools and tricks, but also encourage you to earn that fish, learn from your mistakes, and encourage you to power through to the end while he feverishly works the boat in your favor! It’s also to catch 2 Sturgeon on just a 4 hour journey, but 100% this was a team effort!

- Earl Crabtree

Well, our long weekend of showing a friend from Ontario the province of BC is over and the highlight remains our evening with Yves Bisson on the Fraser River. Yves is the epitome of excellence when it comes to a Sturgeon guide, with his knowledge of the fish, river he simply is the best in the industry in every way possible. I cant recommend Yves enough if you are the most seasoned of fisherman or a complete rookie he will provide you with everything you need to succeed and have the trip of a lifetime! Thanks again Yves, we will see you again soon!

- Lynden Voth

This was an absolutely outstanding time with Yves! I can’t recommend enough. He was a great guide who made you feel so comfortable and has so much respect for the sturgeon. Highly recommend, don’t think twice. He is the guide to take, hands down!

- Go travel, Langley, B.C.

An awesome day owed entirely to Yves. By far the best guided trip my father and I have ever been on. The fishing was incredible and it was a pleasure to be on the boat with Yves. He without a doubt knows what he is doing and it was very clear he loves putting people on fish of a life time. All of the gear provided was top notch quality gear that I as an avid fisherman could only dream to be using! If you are in his area, I would totally recommend calling up Yves and booking a trip, you will not regret it what so ever!

- Logan Lewis

#1 sturgeon guide on the Fraser River. I’ve had the pleasure of fishing with Yves numerous times and know without a doubt the day will be filled with BIG fish and BIG smiles. He has endless knowledge of the sturgeon fishery and the river that supports it. It’s great to see his commitment to the conservation to ensure the future of this catch and release fishery. You will not regret booking with Yves!

- Jayce G

Have been out with Yves before and he is a true Career Fishing Guide and his years of fishing the Fraser River show up in the fish you hook up with! His experience and attention to my two sons and myself was awesome. Caught the Largest Sturgeon of my life and Yves made that and my first trip with just my two son's one of the most memorable days of my life!

- rptroutguy

Fishing with Yves isn’t just fishing.
I have never been with another guide that takes so much care of you like he does.
Everything from pick up at the hotel to return in the evening is just so professional.
Great lunches on the boat with either the barbecue or sandwiches.
And not to forget you will if you can handle it catch some monster fish.
My best recommendations for Yves Bisson sturgeon co.

- Thomas Storch

One of the best days I have ever had on the river. Yves is extremely professional and an expert at what he does.

- Darryl Buhler

Had the opportunity of a lifetime as a fishermen to fish for sturgeon. My son took me and my best buddy out for the day and I can’t say I have ever had a better more memorable experience! Yves attention to detail, professionalism, integrity and desire to make this a memorable experience was flawless!! If I didn’t see us catch 7 fish and 5 over seven feet I would have never believed such a feat was even possible! Can’t wait for the next trip and all the ones after that!! Highly recomend!!!

- Roly Patrick

I've gone on trips for the past two years with Yves and am very impressed. He really knows the river system, fish and provides an excellent overall experience. The section of river that Yves guides has spectacular scenery and really makes for a perfect setting when landing big fish! Definitely booking again and highly recommended!

- Jamie Deba

This was my 3rd Sturgeon trip but first with Yves. He is truly a “whisperer” when it comes to Sturgeon. He had us on fish all day long. His knowledge and equipment is 2nd to none which is particularly important when it comes to new fishermen (3 of our 4 where new to Sturgeon). I highly recommend him and I will definitely be coming back.

- Bart Reynolds

Booked a trip with yves and were currently on the fraser and all 3 of us have had our fair share of fish and the overall experiance right down to the complimentary coffee was the best day we've spent together in a very long time.
Everything about the trip was too notch highly recommend to anyone.
Look forward to booking another soon!

- Joshua Patrick, Local Guide

Was an amazing experience with our guide Yves. Weather great fishing with friends priceless. If you want to do sturgeon fishing, Yves is the guy to call!

- Mike M

Another amazing trip sturgeon fishing with Yves. He is an amazing guide and very knowledgeable. All of the equipment was high end. His covered and heated boat was perfect for a rainy day. All round top rate company!

- nscott07

Yves came highly recommended from a friend, so when I decided to book a sturgeon trip for my dads 60th birthday I knew who to use. We were not disappointed we had an excellent day on a well run boat with 8 fish over 5 feet and a couple of hogs at 7 feet. We took the bbq option and it was excellent. Would not hesitate to book or reccomend yves bisson sturgeon company again.

- Jesse C

We experienced an incredible day sturgeon fishing on the river with Yves Bisson Sturgeon Co . We got 9 fish to the boat , one 8 ‘ 1” , four 7 ‘ plus , three 6 footers and the smallest at 4.5 ‘.

Thanks to our guide Yves Bisson for this memorable day!

Yves is a very knowledgeable, organized guide who not only got us into a lot of huge fish, he also took the time to explain a lot about the fishery to us and allowed our daughter to help with scanning and collecting data on the fish we caught.We highly recommend Yves Bisson Sturgeon Co!

- Garrett Schipper

From booking the trip to getting out on the river yves was exceptional.
Amazing guide and led us to many great experiances on the fraser. He came more than prepared and made it a day for all of us to remember. Thank you

- Joshua P

I have fished with Yves Bisson on a number of occasions, and would highly recommend him to anyone interested in sturgeon fishing on the Fraser River. He has guided trips I’ve been on with groups of men, couples, and even a family trip with three kids, and all were very fun. His care for the sturgeon, and their conservation is exemplary, and you will get an opportunity to witness the tagging/recording program of the Fraser River Conservation Society in action with Yves! Call Yves and Co. and book a trip—you won’t regret it!

- Aaron Chipper Gramlich

We had the most exciting day on the water! Yves not only helped us catch a BIG ONE (actually 2) - but he taught us SO much about fishing! We are so excited and looking forward to taking our kids one day!

- Karin Kathler

The number one guide for big sturgeon on the Fraser River. I have been working in the Sportfishing trade for over 20 years now and Yves is the best guide i have ever been fishing with by a long stretch. Highly recommend.

- Jeff Gramlich

The best fishing guide in BC!

- Bobbi Blumhagen

I have been out a few times sturgeon fishing on the Fraser River, with different guides. Yves is by far the best guide.
