Utah Lake?

[TubeDude]

I took the time to ask Chris Penne from DWR.  I will see if he can respond to my email.

As the regulations are written, I do not believe that a ticket would stand up to a court of law.  The point of it being difficult to tell a junnie from other suckers is valid, in fact, historically the "State Experts" were fooled in a public hearing when Snake River Suckers were put before them. 

Nevertheless, the way the guidebook is written, there is no grey area, sucker flesh is permitted in any body of water where bait is legal, and bait is legal in UL.  

Clearly if sucker meat is not permitted, clarifications should be made ASAP on the state website.

We will see.  This is one case where I can see both sides of the case, but "the glove did not fit so I cannot convict".

I also sent an inquiry to Chris Crockett...in the Springville DWR office.  He is possibly more in tune with what is going on at Utah Lake.  I will post his response when I get it.
