Middle Provo and Live Bait

[tomegun]

[size 2]Has anyone used live bait or powerbait on the middle Provo yet? I saw an article in the Trib about the snow level being kinda high. I might have to pull out a long rod sometime this week and get a frying pan ready[]. [/size]

[#800000][size 2]Under highlights of the 2004 Utah Fishing Proclamtion: (1) General fishing regulations will apply on the Provo River from Charleston Bridge upstream to the Legacy Bridge at Hwy 113(Midway Lane). Previously this has been flies and lures only with a 2-fish limit. This change was approved by the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, Wildlife Board to encourage harvest of an over abundant brown trout population.[/size][/#800000]

[size 2][#800000]What this means to me? 2 fish limit under 15 inches. This is per IV Season dates and Bag and Possession Limits section C-6-n(see Provo River sections c/d underGeneral Provisions). [/#800000][/size]

I might have to go take some plastics down and give it a whirl now . Not that I want trout to eat , but have missed fishing it since the no scent regs .

[size 2]They screwed up the Proclamation. The Highlights section says the artifical flies and lures only has been lifted. But, the General Provisions section doesn't have the new change. OOPS![blush] [/size]

Check the proclamation again. It says that the regulations from Midway Lane to Jordanelle dam are artificials only and 2 trout limit. There is no mention of the section between Charleston bridge and Midway Lane because it is now general regulations--general reg. waters are not covered in this section ("Specific Exceptions to the General Provisions).
