Jordan Smith of Bent Rods Fishing is who you want in the boat with you when it comes time to haul in your sturgeon. Jordan Smith knows everything there is to know about sturgeon. Fishing isn't just a business to him, it is his life. Plan your next angling excursion with Bent Rods Fishing and you'll head home with some trophy catches! Sturgeon are the largest game fish in North America. Sturgeon come in various sizes, with the largest being upwards of 12-15 feet in length. Sturgeon are divided into three classes: shakers, keepers, and peelers--also known as trophy sturgeon. Shakers are under 42". You know you have a shaker on the line because your line will shake vigorously. It is great fun to have a spirited shaker on your line and reel in this energetic acrobat. Per fishing regulations, shakers must be returned to the water. Keepers are between 42" and 5 feet in length. The keepers will slowly shake your line, then take a quick run. These make for an interesting fight, and they are delicious eating. A trophy sturgeon, or peeler, is the Goliath of sturgeon. They will usually jump at least once, and it might take the effort of you and Jordan to haul one of these giants in. Peelers of 1000+ pounds have been reported. For reservations, please call us at 360-910-214. Jordan fishes out of Hood River, Oregon, among other choice spots he's come to know about over the years. To get to Hood River from Portland, take 84 East and drive for 61 miles. Then take Exit 64 into Hood River. The boat launch is just under the Hood River Bridge.
