Just bought my $30 WY. Aquatic Invasive Species Decal.
and will stop somewhere in WY. and buy the $30 reciprocal fishing permit for the  Wyoming side. I like the green one they give you, A lot better than the paper you print

Robert, the POSSESSION limit in Wyoming is equal to a one day creel limit:

2022 Wyoming Regs - Page 14 Wrote:7. Flaming Gorge Reservoir in Sweetwater County. • The creel limit on trout (excluding lake trout) shall be four (4) per day or in possession.

The POSSESSION limit in Utah is equal to two daily limits:

2022 Utah Guidebook - Page 21 Wrote:Additional limit in the field
You may possess up to two daily limits of fsh as you travel within Utah—or if you leave the state—as long as you meet all of the following conditions:

Here's the conundrum - Utah says you can possess two days’ worth of fish caught in Utah even if you leave the state.  Let's say you stay in Manila, UT but fish the Wyoming side of the Gorge.  You can bring your Wyoming caught 4-kokanee limit back to your Utah abode (RV, motel, etc.) two days in a row where it is legal to have a two-day possession limit.  Now you head back to your Utah residence through Wyoming (as most people do).  You get stopped/checked by a Wyoming CO in Mountain View while stopping to eat or fuel up (not likely, but possible).  Wyoming says the possession limit for kokanee caught in the Gorge is 4.  Is the Wyoming CO going to write you a citation for violation of the Wyoming law?
