The Detroit Ranger station is closed to visitors, but they still answer phone calls during business hours. Try calling them at 503-854-3366 Monday-Saturday 8:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m . You can also email them at Detroit Ranger District

The ODFW changed the rules a few years ago. On page 10 of the 2014 Sports Fishing Regulations under Gear and Bait Restrictions, 3.) Dead fish, preserved fish, or parts of fish, shellfish and fish eggs may be used as bait. Goldfish may not be used as bait or in angler’s possession while angling.

Live minnows are a definite no no in fresh water, but you can use dead ones with one exception: goldfish. You can't even have them in your possession when you fish.

You only need the Columbia River Endorsement if you are fishing for salmon, steelhead, or sturgeon.
