I have run many setlines over the years. Setlines are meant to be left out over night in most cases. You dont have to be within 100 yards of your setline, your setline has to be within 100 yards of the bank. Utah doesnt have a requirement on how often setlines need to be checked but this is why they require you to put your name and info on the line so that if it is left there too long and fish are wasted they can track down the owner and write him a ticket. If a setline is setup properly and anchored properly checking once every 24 hours is fine. You will not kill fish but you will loose some fish that will twist off. Checking it a couple times a day is a better bet to catching more fish.
