What should I wear?
SPRING/SUMMER STURGEON FISHING
Air temperatures could range from 20-35 Degrees Celsius throughout the day. Layering is a good idea to adjust to the temperature throughout your trip. In summer, it’s always recommended you bring sunblock & polarized sunglasses. If there's a chance of rain, bring rain gear. Yves will supply Simms G3 waders as well as Simms boots if you need to get into the water to hold your fish for the ultimate fishing photo.
FALL/WINTER STURGEON FISHING
The temperature on the water is generally slightly cooler than the surrounding land, but not as significantly different as if you were fishing in open water. Best idea is to layer your clothing, especially in the cooler months. Also, fighting a large sturgeon in the winter will certainly warm you up. Yves’ 23-ft jet boat has a covered area with a heater to make things more comfortable on cooler or wet days. Polarized sunglasses are handy on sunny days. Gloves and a hat are advisable when the weather is cooler. If it’s raining, bring rain gear. Yves provides Simms G3 waders as well as Simms wading boots.
