Two Resolutions State of Utah should make:

[SkunkedAgain]

Not all are master fishermen and none start out that way, so bait is a good option for those learning and the rest of us that need a sweetner to increase our catch... Without bait, I'm sure my numbers would be lower... Although there are times when I fish without bait and do well, it's not all times... Yes I'm not a fly elitist, but I dabble at times and have fun, but there are other ways to catch fish that I enjoy that don't require wading in icy waters.. and my only pure bait soaking involves catfish, the rest is just adding some taste to my jigs to help entice the strike... So I guess I'm one that isn't in favor of that suggestion, but like you said everyone to their own preference, but don't take away others bait option from more than they have already taken... There are areas that are artificial only, so you can fish those areas and I'll fish my areas... Good balance and fair trade... Later Jeff
