Yep I am in the process of of writing my letter and sending it to my rep, hopefully a good medium will be found. Over the years Ive heard good arguments from both sides, and strongly feel allowing Utahns access to these rivers is in the Public interest. Ive always thought the DWR's walk in access program was a good deal. It gives some cash to the private land owner to assist in any repairs but also give access to the public. But from my understanding the DWR's budget was slashed which really pisses me off due to the fact anglers put up over 700 million in revenue just in licenses. Not to mention the hundreds of million generated from tax on angling equipment.
One of the comments left on the tribs page was dead on.
" It's ironic that folks from out of state, who are a member of Victory Ranch Club can fish the upper Provo, but a Utahan with a fishing license can't. "
Will have to wait and see hopefully they can come to terms sooner than later.
