You are correct that it is illegal to use live minnows from one body anywhere, even where caught. Dead redside shiners may be used anywhere bait is legal though. From the Guidebook:
While you are fishing, it is unlawful to:
•Use or possess live baitfish
•Dead mountain sucker, white sucker,
Utah sucker, redside shiner, speckled
dace, mottled sculpin, fathead minnow (all color variants, including
rosy red minnows), Utah chub and
common carp may be used as bait in
any water where bait is permitted.
