Changes to the 2019-2020 fishing rules includes more than being allowed to now fish with corn and keeping more lake trout. A rule stating that anglers may not have more than one daily limit of fish in their possession while fishing on Flaming Gorge and Strawberry Reservoirs has been lifted. Some anglers who take the time to travel to Flaming Gorge and Strawberry Reservoirs want to spend more than one day fishing before coming home, shares the board announcement. In order to give anglers a chance to keep more fish, board members approved a two-day possession limit at both waters. “With the exception of Flaming Gorge and Strawberry, two-day possession limits have been allowed at all of the fishing waters in Utah,” shares sport fisheries coordinator Randy Oplinger. “We haven’t seen any biological impact on the waters where a two-day possession limit is allowed. We’re happy those who fish Flaming Gorge and Strawberry will have the same opportunity starting in 2019.” To see all the changes approved by the Utah Wildlife Board, visit
