Abstract: In 1999, set line and angling techniques were used to sample sturgeon in the Fraser River between Saddle Rock and French Bar Creek.

Fish capture in the middle section of the study area between Boston Bar and Lillooet were uniformly distributed. One area ("Rattlesnake Pool", rKm 319) was noted because of the high capture rate of white sturgeon. In the upper section, higher densities of white sturgeon were recorded in the vicinity of French Bar Canyon. White sturgeon were also identified as being sporadically distributed in the Fraser River between the Bridge River Rapids and Leon Creek, an area of the Fraser River where sturgeon had not been previously documented.
