That works only as an Android app. When travelling in a foreign
country tourists use it all the time.

With a laptop, I used online OCR software to read the text in the
image then feed that into Google translate.
It is written in Russian.

>From Wikipedia:
People from countries in the former Soviet Union (especially Russians
and Ukrainians) form a comparatively large demographic in Spokane and
Spokane County, the result of a large influx of immigrants and their
families after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. According to
the 2000 Census, the number of people of Russian or Ukrainian ancestry
in Spokane County was reported to be 7,700 (4,900 residing in the city
of Spokane), amounting to two percent of the county.
(And many must go fishing!).

ATTENTION!
Special fishing regulations in force
River SPOKANE:

NO bait (including worms, marshmallows or marshmallow, Power Bait,
corn, etc.)

Only use hooks without teeth. Using triple
hooks is prohibited.
Wild trout must be released (in the wild trout have a
adipose fin - see image on the sign above. Almost all trout
in Spokane River - wild trout must be released and the whole
unharmed.)
Before you go fishing - learn the law!
Ignorance of the law is not an excuse. More
information can be found in the brochure WDFW!
