Washington anglers should be aware either the Freshwater, Saltwater or Combination fishing licenses can be used to fish the Columbia River from the Buoy 10 line upstream to a line from Rocky Point in Washington across to Tongue Point in Oregon. Rocky Point is located along the west shore of Grays Bay near the Pacific/Wahkiakum counties border. Remember, a WDFW Vehicle Use Permit is required to use water access sites and wildlife areas and is free with fishing and hunting license purchases. Permits will be sold for $10 each to non-hunting and non-fishing recreationists who use these areas for other activities.
