I was super excited that Luke and Sabrina could come fishing with us because I have been watching their travel and food videos for a couple of years now! Check them out at: th-cam.com/users/ToastWithJim Many thanks to my buddy Lang who continues to deliver. Check out his charters at: www.langsfishingadventures.com Finally, thanks to Tourism Chilliwack and Coast Hotel for making this episode possible!
Thanks Larry! That chum salmon on the first cast kind of ruined the video. 😆 I was hoping that Lang would demonstrate it, then Luke would hook the first one on his own. 😉
Thanks! Our sturgeon in the Fraser River are really amazing. The average size you typically see are between 4 an 6 feet long. Just about every trip we've been out with Lang, we've encountered a 8 footer or longer... 😉
Thanks! It’s a really fun experience but also allows those who try it for the first time to learn a lot about these fish, take part in the tagging program and generate more conservation funds by purchasing the conservation surcharges.
My favourite fishing memory of 2020 was in November. I got to take out my new 16 footer out for the first time, and on the Harrison River. It was extra special to me as I had my toe partially amputated due to an injury earlier in the summer. It was a day to distract me from my toe issue. Yeow!!!
Great video as always Rod, Wow a almost 100 year old fish. Impressive. Lucky lady. I have yet to do some sturgeon fishing. (its on my bucket list) Looks tiring: ) Thanks for video.
Love the surgeon episodes. All we have down here are pallid and shovelnose, much much smaller and pretty scarce. No hookset? Is Lang using circle books now?
Thanks! Yep Lang has been using circles for at least a couple years now. I think the first time we filmed this technique with him was in November 2017.
My 2 buddies and I just did a charter with langs company a few weeks ago! Our guide cody was A+ excellent and we caught some chum salmon and an 8 foot sturgeon!!!!! Thanks lang and cody!
rod that was a class video as you know i missed out this year on my trip to chilliwack for sturgeon i am so excited that we have it booked again for 2021 for mid September and i hope to land a monster like that. hopefully the this virus will be under control by then. keep up the good work over there
October is indeed the best month to be around here. Sturgeon in the Fraser River, salmon in smaller streams, mushrooms in the bush, lake fishing for trout is also excellent too. 🙂
Rod I am going to be trying to catch some Chum this weekend, do you have any suggestions for how to prepare them? I know their meat isn't as flavorful as Coho or Sockeye or Chinook. Any suggestions for the eggs?
This year we have been smoking the couple of chum salmon we kept and it has been amazing! The key really just comes down to the freshness of the fish, every salmon species can be great as long as they are fresh and prepped in the right away.
Thanks Finnan, for chum salmon, float fishing with a jig is always the way to go. th-cam.com/video/VbbXTvaUF5I/w-d-xo.html For coho, check out th-cam.com/video/TpZUMufXEnk/w-d-xo.html

Always love seeing videos on our beautiful Fraser River Sturgeon. Keep up the good work!
Thanks! :)
Another great video Rod. Congrats on landing such a beautiful sturgeon and helping to show off our legendary local fishing.
Thanks Glen! We always need that reminder how amazing this little corner of Canada is and the best way to do that is by taking visitors out. 😃
Wow!!! Don’t know what was more impressive the chum on the first cast or the size of the Sturgeon... Another fantastic video Rod!
Thanks Larry! That chum salmon on the first cast kind of ruined the video. 😆 I was hoping that Lang would demonstrate it, then Luke would hook the first one on his own. 😉
Thank You Rod, this was an incredible video! I never expected to see a sturgeon that big! Just Amazing!! Really, Thank You So Much Rod!!👍
Thanks! Our sturgeon in the Fraser River are really amazing. The average size you typically see are between 4 an 6 feet long. Just about every trip we've been out with Lang, we've encountered a 8 footer or longer... 😉
Thanks again for the video Rod!! Amazing content!
Thanks Danny! 😊
Awesome video! And what a giant sturgeon, wow! Sore muscles for days :D It's really thought-provoking, seeing such an old animal in the wild.
Thanks! It’s a really fun experience but also allows those who try it for the first time to learn a lot about these fish, take part in the tagging program and generate more conservation funds by purchasing the conservation surcharges.
Here after watching and following Luke Martin.👍👍👍👌✌️
Thanks for stopping by!

Kitty told me about the injury! Glad you got the boat out. 🙂
Sturgeon are such a cool fish and that one is massive.
I doubt I'll see one bigger than that for awhile lol...
Great video as always Rod, Wow a almost 100 year old fish. Impressive. Lucky lady. I have yet to do some sturgeon fishing. (its on my bucket list) Looks tiring: ) Thanks for video.
Thanks Rick! Everyone has to try this once. 🙂
What an amazing video. Looks like the trip of a lifetime!
It was!

Thats a Nice clean chum
My 2 buddies and I just did a charter with langs company a few weeks ago! Our guide cody was A+ excellent and we caught some chum salmon and an 8 foot sturgeon!!!!! Thanks lang and cody!
That's great to hear Rob!
Wow 😃 Spectacular video Rod, awesome 🎣🎣👍
Thanks Andy!
That's awesome . Always love the excitement & then you hit that omg mode lol . How where they feeling the day after ??
We went fishing for coho salmon the following day but couldn't get an early start, too exhausted lol.
I did not expect to see you catch such a bright Chum this late in the year. The border really needs to reopen soon so I can hit BC waters again
This trip was back in early October, I'd say the chance of encountering a bright chum salmon is pretty slim now but not impossible.
rod that was a class video as you know i missed out this year on my trip to chilliwack for sturgeon i am so excited that we have it booked again for 2021 for mid September and i hope to land a monster like that. hopefully the this virus will be under control by then. keep up the good work over there
Thanks Amy! Chilliwack looks forward to have you here next year! 😊
Yes, I guess October is the month I need to visit BC! Salmon and giant dinosaurs!
October is indeed the best month to be around here. Sturgeon in the Fraser River, salmon in smaller streams, mushrooms in the bush, lake fishing for trout is also excellent too. 🙂
Excellent thanks! Can’t wait till restrictions are over to get out and fish for sturgeon myself
Thanks Mark! Just a few more weeks of Covid restrictions hopefully!
Look forward to see you to make a video of sturgeon fishing from the shore.
👍
Wow what an amazing fish. Great job!
Thanks Justin!
Woah that is one massive sturgeon! They are really ancient fish and I think these ones are the longest lived species of fish in North America!
Yep! In freshwater they are indeed the longest living. 🙂
What brand and action are the rods he uses? Those look like they have an awesome tip and good bend in the rod !
Nice production, pretty professional
Thank you!
THAT'S a hard record to break 🤣!
Haha yes! Sabrina is kind of ruined now, every fish she catches after this is now a minnow. 😆
Rod I am going to be trying to catch some Chum this weekend, do you have any suggestions for how to prepare them? I know their meat isn't as flavorful as Coho or Sockeye or Chinook. Any suggestions for the eggs?

@@FishingwithRod Hopefully I can hook into a bright Chum this weekend!
Man I don't know if I want to fight a fish that big I will need a nap after that great video
Thanks Bill! I think all of us felt like a nap after that too! 😆
Awesome video! I just got into salmon fishing this year and I was wondering what bait/ lures you used to catch the chum and coho?
Thanks Finnan, for chum salmon, float fishing with a jig is always the way to go. th-cam.com/video/VbbXTvaUF5I/w-d-xo.html
For coho, check out th-cam.com/video/TpZUMufXEnk/w-d-xo.html
When was this filmed and where
My dream to catch a white sturgeon myself also a great awesome video
Thanks Ford! Hope you'll get to try this soon too! 🙂
Oh man I missed the premiere, I have an excuse.... work. I'll have to watch later when done.
Priorities!! Patients, or TH-cam premieres.... Come on... 😆
@@FishingwithRod haha...
@@FishingwithRod I know... well if I would have seen it earlier may have been there. haha.
What are you using for pikeminnow
Dew worms, salmon roe, anything edible.
Are they good crab bait?
Awesome 🤙
🤙
Nice fish
Thanks 👍
Awesome
Thanks Martin!
You know know it's a good one when the parts of the soundtrack might as well be from a porn video.
Sorry, I couldn't help myself, I show myself out.
😳😳😳

Well thanks Paulie. 😉 Hopefully you will also get a chance to pop up here for a day of sturgeon fishing in the future. October is the best month. 😉
"her or him"
its a fisssshhh
could you possibly be anymore 2020 ?
Certainly nothing wrong with identifying the gender of a fish. A sturgeon at this size is typically a female.
I know this may shock you, but giving fish genders is not part of the woke agenda, it is just biology. Nothing wrong with saying "him or her" when you're not sure
