I remember catching a couple of 2 footers in the estuary of the Fraser river South arm near Vancouver.
Also a giant sturgeon ( 600 pounds )was caught in Stave lake near Pitt Meadows (30km east of Vancouver ) in the late 70 's and some were regularly caught in fishermen nets in the Fraser between Chilliwack and Coquitlam while I lived in B.C.
