Outdoor notes
Becoming an Outdoors Woman program has a pheasant hunt scheduled for Oct. 28 at the Let the Good Times Fly pheasant outfitter in White Valley, north of Brigham City.
The hunt is limited to the first 15 women who register by Oct. 20. The cost is $107. Women can register or receive more information by calling Sherry Gittins at 801-969-1564.
There will be five professional guides with trained hunting dogs to lead the group.
Because this is a private outfitter, a hunting license is not required. For safety reasons, participants must wear something orange. Women must also bring a shotgun and shotgun shells.
Each woman will be able to take up to three birds. Lunch will be provided after the hunt.
NEW ANGLER RULES
Anglers at Scofield Reservoir can keep eight trout a day beginning Jan. 1.
Also, beginning Jan. 1, anglers who have a permit for a second fishing rod can fish with two. Those fishing with two poles may not keep two limits, however.
Those changes were among several fishing regulation changes the Utah Wildlife Board approved for Utah's 2007 fishing season.
Fishermen can keep 10 walleye except at Willard Bay Reservoir, where the limit will remain at six. Only one of the walleyes caught at any of the waters can be longer than 24 inches.
Fishermen can keep four trout of any species at Panguitch Lake and its tributaries, but the trout must be less than 15 inches or over 22 inches in length.
Fishermen may use artificial flies and lures only at Calder Reservoir and may keep only one fish. The fish must be more than 22 inches long.
For more information call 801-538-4700. The Utah 2007 Fishing Guide should be available in December.
MORE TURKEY PERMITS
More hunters will be hunting wild turkeys in Utah next spring.
The Utah Wildlife Board approved 2,373 Rio Grande permits for the 2007 hunt, which is 339 more than last spring.
Board members also approved 732 Merriam's permits, which is 94 more than the last spring.
"Over the past seven years, we've moved a lot of wild turkeys into Utah, and we've also moved a lot of birds from one area of the state to another," said Dean Mitchell, upland game coordinator for the Division of Wildlife Resources.
Applications for 2007 wild turkey permits will be available by Nov. 28. Applications must be received by Dec. 26 to be included in the draw for permits. Draw results will be posted by Jan. 31.
