Page 21: Possession of filleted fish
While you are in the act of fishing, it is unlawful to possess filleted fish from the current day’s catch or fish that have had their heads or tails removed. This does not apply to fish processed for immediate consumption or from a previous day’s catch.
At most waters, you may fillet harvested game fish, or remove their heads or tails, after you have:
•Completed the act of fishing
•Arrived at camp
• Reached a fish-cleaning station
•Arrived at a principle means of land
transportation
At Strawberry Reservoir, Scofield Reservoir, Lost Creek Reservoir and Panguitch Lake, you may not fillet trout and salmon, and you may not remove their heads or tails while in the field or in transit.

Page 41: Strawberry Reservoir, Wasatch County
•Limit 4 trout or kokanee salmon (a combined total).
•No more than 2 may be cutthroat trout under 15 inches, and no more than 1
may be a cutthroat trout over 22 inches.
•All cutthroat trout from 15 to 22 inch[cool]es must be immediately released.
•Trout and salmon may not be filleted, and the heads or tails may not be
removed in the field or in transit.
•An angler may have only one daily limit in possession at any time.
•Anglers are encouraged to voluntarily release all cutthroat trout.
•Any trout with cutthroat characteristics (not necessarily jaw slashing) is considered to be a cutthroat trout. To learn how to identify cutthroat trout in this
water, see the description of Bear Lake cutthroat trout on page 50.)

[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000]Feel free to interpolate those guidelines as you see fit. You will notice that the part about immediate consumption is NOT contained in the part specific to Strawberry. The specific Strawberry part does NOT contain an exception for immediate consumption. Your guess is as good as mine as to exactly how a CO will interpolate these conflicting guidelines.

Again, feel free to draw your own conclusions about the intent of the guidelines.
