Fishing Derbies, Private or Corporate
Fishing Derbies;
Fraser Legends Fishing charters loves to have fun and there isn’t more fun than having a friendly or competitive fishing derby. Sturgeon fishing in particular lends itself to a highly exciting experience since you never know just how big the winner might be. They can be public sponsored derbies or private (such as wedding stags or stagettes) or corporate affairs.
Check here from time to time to see the listing of derbies for which we would be glad to refer you to or to be your guide boat. Most derbies have a four person per boat limit. Derby fees are set by the derby sponsor. Guide fees are usually in addition to derby fees (Except for the Fraser White Sturgeon Conservation Society where guide fees are included in the registration fee and a partial charitable tax receipt may be available.)

Sturgeon Derby + a Wedding? or
Sturgeon Derby + a Corporate Event? Might not be as strange as it sounds. If you have a need to take your prospective inlaws, groomsman or brides maids out for a real "stag" or "stagette" we recommend you book a trip with Fraser Legends Fishing. If you want to have a corporate event and offer a prize sturgeon fishing trip we can arrange that and talk to us about getting special monogrammed shirts and jackets. If you need outdoor coverage and event tents we recommend you go with "The Tent Guys"! If you need photographers to cover your wedding, stag, stagette or corporate function, we recommend you go with "Nordica Photography" to capture all those special and the unexpected moments. |

A Derby can be as small as 3 or 4 people on a single boat to a large function for a company or a competitive public derby with sponsors. Fraser Legends Fishing Charters will partner with you and/or your organization, event planners to assemble the boats and professional guides needed to accommodate your group.
The larger the group, the more lead time is required and seasonal considerations and scheduling are key.
Call 1- 604)-980-8959 or e-mail at FraserLegendsFishing@hotmail.com for more information
All sturgeon derbies are strictly catch and release and all participating guides will participate in the capture, tagging, measuring, health check and documentation of each catch.
We will assist in the obtaining of the necessary fishing licenses for participants of small group derbies.
