Dentaybow Public Water Access Site is a Koochiching County Land & Forestry canoe and small-boat access on the Little Fork River. The grassy clearing has picnic tables, two benches — one of them a memorial bench engraved “Foster’s Run” — and Minnesota DNR aquatic-invasive-species signage at the access.
Rules for this place
The border waters section of the Minnesota fishing regulations covers only the lower reach of the Little Fork River, and the water above that point is not in it. Minnesota’s invasive species law rides home with the trailer: pull the drain plug, drain the water, and leave plants and prohibited species at the access. Part of the Little Fork River is on the DNR’s infested waters list for spiny waterflea, which adds bait and water-transport rules for anyone leaving it; the list gives the exact reach.
