Smoker Oars have been 100% Made in the USA since 1921. Over the years, Smoker Oars has built some of the toughest oars on the planet from solid Northern White Ash.

Smoker Oars were part of U.S. Marine Corps and Navy SEAL missions that contributed to the success of World War II. Smoker Oars were also among the first oars to run the Grand Canyon.

Today, Smoker Oars is proud to launch the lightest-weight yet incredibly durable Smoker Bandit series, designed for modern-day combat fishing in high-performance drift boats.

The Smoker Bandit and Smoker Bandit Shoal continue the legacy of high-quality, rugged, and now lightweight professional-grade oars trusted by our global network of fishing guides.

Professional anglers often row more than 1,000 strokes per river mile while positioning their boats for the perfect presentation. The proprietary blend of carbon twill reinforced with durable fiberglass delivers the ideal combination of flex, feel, and responsiveness on every stroke.

The Smoker Bandit blades are handcrafted using some of the toughest materials available for whitewater applications, providing durability without sacrificing performance.

Available Lengths

Smoker Bandit Oars are available in lengths from 8 feet to 10 feet in 6-inch increments.

Recommended Pairing: Cobra Oar Locks

For the longest life and best on-water performance, we recommend pairing these oars with the legendary Cobra Oar Locks.

Cobra Oar Locks provide an exceptional range of motion while helping protect the oar shaft in demanding conditions. The result is smoother rowing, improved control, and increased durability when navigating technical water.
