About Your Trip

Spend a full day on the water chasing one of the most powerful freshwater fish in North America with Captain Levi. This sturgeon trip out of Lillooet is built around big fish, hands-on action, and a setting that’s just as memorable as the fishing itself.

Your day begins at 9:00 AM at the boat launch, where you’ll meet up and get ready to head out. You’ll be fishing from a 22’ covered and heated jet
boat, designed to keep you comfortable while navigating the river. The trip wraps up back at the same location around 5:00 PM, giving you a full day on the water.

The focus is targeting white sturgeon, with real potential to hook into fish reaching 12 feet in length and over 700 pounds. These are true giants, and every hookup turns into a battle you won’t forget. Levi will guide you through the entire process, from getting set up to fighting and landing these massive fish.

Everything you need is provided, including rods, bait, tackle, safety equipment, and coolers stocked with ice and water. Midday, you’ll take a break to enjoy a BBQ lunch served right on the riverbank, with incredible views surrounding you.

Levi also captures photos throughout the trip, so you’ll leave with more than just the memory of the day.

This is a fully guided experience focused on giving you a real shot at landing a giant while enjoying one of the most unique fisheries in the world.
