Lower Salmon Falls Sturgeon

[kentd71]

I was thinking about sturgeon bank fishing. A 9 foot fish on a 12 foot rod is alot of leverage. I have a Ugly Stick and 2 Bass Pro Shop rods that I really like. The one BPS rod is almost too stiff. I also have penn reels. I watched a couple of guys that had what looked to be 8 foot custom rods that were soft at the tip but had alot of backbone to them. I have a similar rod but it is too light for sturgeon. I am going over to CJ the first part of May.
