You can catch those in the Willamette and Columbia Rivers as well as all their tributaries. Did you eat it or let it go? Nice catch I would like to have a snag on my line just like that one. You can also catch Sturgeon at the same location you hooked the nice Bass. You will want heavier Fishing Gear to land a Sturgeon. Nice Picture and Thank You for sharing it.
But make sure you kiss it for good luck before throwing it back...then hope she don't beat the H*ll out of you...LOL...she looks like she could hold her own ground
