Public access
Lakes and reservoirs here are on the UDWR stocking programme and open to the public; river access is on public land, at bridges and road crossings, and on stretches with a public-access easement or Walk-In Access agreement (Utah’s 2010 Access Act bars touching a private streambed)
The general Utah trout limit is 4, but many waters carry reduced limits, slot limits, artificial-only or catch-and-release rules — the Green River, the Provo, Blue Ribbon water and the cutthroat-conservation streams especially — and native chub, sucker, Colorado pikeminnow, bonytail and June sucker must be released; always check the current Utah Fishing Guidebook
