Tips, Ties And Tactics Utah Stream Access: Rule Change
Posted by fliesandfinswest on Monday, July 21 @ 12:06:04 PDT

The Utah Supreme Court has stepped up in favor of angler access rights (http://www.sltrib.com/news/ci_9931514). There is so much water in Utah that has been locked down by private landowners. Not any more. The ruling came last week deeming that the public has the right to access private water through public lands. (read it for yourself http://www.utcourts.gov/opinions/sup...tser071808.pdf). As most people know fly fishing has become very popular and Utah is no exception. This will help spread that pressure out. Anglers will still have to work for the "good stuff" as access points are limited and, in many cases, long walks will be required. I would advise a few words of caution. Make sure you are using public access point, Pick up you trash and do not abuse this privilege. It is a privilege! Respect the landowners. They are not going to be happy. You may consider a bullet proof vest until they settle into the idea.

I've been chasing smallies most of the summer but just recently got to take advantage of the new angler water rights. I have a friend who was born near Park City and has fishedmost of the water around here for the last 20 years. We hoofed it in and fished water that he hasn't been on in 7 years. Beautiful water, no litter or trails, with very nice brownies that probably hadn't been hooked in years if at all. I can't wait to do some more exploring! But take advantage of the law now, there are rumors that land owners are trying to appeal the law and get it back in court!!
