If you're ready to experience fishing in Detroit, look no further than Bent Rod Sportfishing. With Captain Nathan at the helm, you'll benefit from years of knowledge and experience.
Fishing around here will often see you targeting Yellow Perch, Sturgeon, Walleye, and more if you cast your line at the right time of year. You can expect to do some trolling, jigging, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
You'll be dropping lines from a 21' Lund aluminum fishing boat with space for 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you. Live bait is available, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.
Docked out of Sindbad's Restaurant and marina there is no better location on the river. Take your fresh catch to the restaurant for a delicious catch and cook!
Before coming aboard, you will need to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.
It's never a bad idea to bring bottled water, sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
And that's it! Your fishing trip with Bent Rod Sportfishing is just a click away.

6 Hour Trip – Sturgeon
My Son was always talking about catching a sturgeon someday, so for his birthday I chartered with Nathan at Bent Rod. We weren't disappointed my Son got his wish, a 62 inch surgeon. Nathan was an excellent captain across the board, a fine young man. I would book again with him!
