"We're trying to encourage more anglers to fish at Joes Valley," Wilson said of the proposal. "It's a great water to fish, but not many anglers are fishing it."
The current regulations at the reservoir require anglers to release all trout that are between 15 and 22 inches long. "This regulation has produced some big fish, but anglers still don't seem that interested in fishing at the reservoir. And keeping bigger fish in the reservoir has not reduced the number of Utah chubs the way we were hoping it would," Wilson said.
New regulation would allow anglers to take some fish home but would still protect splake that grow longer than 18 inches.
For more information call the nearest DWR office or 801- 538-4700.
