[shocked]BAITFISHED and RELEASED EVERYTHING caught? Ouch. Hope none of them were bleeding too bad. Fish released after being caught on bait have a 50% chance of dying if I remember the #'s right on the DWR website. These new "bait allowed" regulations on that part of the river were introduced starting this month to encourage anglers to keep their limits to help the fish population on the middle provo to get healthier. I'm sure you probably noticed how skinny the fish were. That's due to TOO MANY fish in that section of the river for the food that is there. Maybe next time you can take a couple home and give to your fish eating relatives or neighbors. Just a suggestion.
