"The holiday brochure advertised it as a 'Fishing Adventure of a Life Time' and it certainly lived up to every bit of that statement. Fishing for the Giant White Sturgeon on the Fraser River at Chilliwack in British Columbia has to be one of the best fishing holidays experiences, catching a 6ft, 150lb Sturgeon in the fast flowing waters of the Fraser river on 50lb class stand up and fight tackle was a serious rush of adrenalin which tested our strength, stamina and fishing ability to its absolute limit. Our guide Marc Laynes runs 'Cascade Fishing Adventures' which provides the best guiding service in Chilliwack, Marc's knowledge of the Fraser River and the sturgeon fishing is second to none. He has a great feel for the river and in his 40mph jet boat 'Relentless' we explored many miles of it. Nothing was to much trouble to get that 'big one'. Our accommodation in the historic Royal Hotel (circa 1908) was first class and the great evenings spent in one of the many local bars or restaurants in Chilliwack was all part of our holiday, but it is the daily experience of snow covered mountains, fabulous wild life and of course the mighty Sturgeon that will brings us back to the Fraser River again next year. Our thanks to the Angling Direct Holidays and in particular Marc Laynes for making our 'fishing holiday of a life time'. Regards, Nelson, Brian, Graham and Tony"

Just a quick note and pictures from our recent holiday, if we were to give it a title it would have to be complete madness. However, do not worry as it was for all the right reasons. Just too many big fish for us, I think we need to go and get a lot fitter before returning. Thank you all.

Peter just a quick note saying the new accommodation at the Royal Hotel is just fine. The service is so much better than before at the Rhombus. We even got breakfast on time every morning. What dates do you have for the last quarter?

Just a very quick note to say thanks to Mark, head guide plus all the rest of your team. We all thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. Oh and the look on the boys faces when we were escorted to the awaiting limo in Vancouver, just brillante.

This was our second trip with you and we must say we even enjoyed it more the seconded time, which was something we did not think possible. Thanks to all our guides and your staff.
