    I know we are all thinking the same thing, but what will we do about it????
    So let me ask you this. Will going to a RAC meeting and voicing your displeasure over the Villa derby coming to a end,force the organizers of the derby to hold it again next year?

    I had one do that last year at Wallowa, went straight down first, then straight up, they way out in front of the boat, then turned around and came right back towards the boat, and thats when I lost him, could not keep up and he got slack.

    I am assuming it was a koke, never saw it, could have been a lake trout also.

    Propnuts- "So let me ask you this. Will going to a RAC meeting and voicing your displeasure over the Villa derby coming to a end,force the organizers of the derby to hold it again next year?"

    Interesting, I figured I would be challenged on the RAC idea.

    No, it won't they can't be made to do anything. But making UT regs more user friendly and less prohibitive to derby type events would not hurt a thing. Also taking a sec to go to a RAC would likely be beneficial to all of us. We live in one of the few states that considers public opinion while making or modifying laws.

    Just my thoughts

    [QUOTE=FISH;29064]has nothing to do with the dwr!

    Not entirely true. The Utah DWR does impact fishing contests! The rules "in part" are listed below.

    Fishing contests
    Utah Admin. Rule R657-58

    You can hold a fishing contest in Utah, but you
    must follow the rules, some of which changed this
    year. For the current fishing contest rules, please
    see Utah Admin. Rule R657-58 at wildlife.utah.
    gov/rules, visit http://go.usa.gov/axu or contact
    the nearest Division office.

    R657-58-5. Requirements for Type I Fishing Contests for Cold Water Fish Species
    (1) A COR from the division is required for all Type I fishing contests for cold water fish species.

    (2) Type I fishing contests for cold water fish may not:

    (a) involve more than 200 participants

    (b) offer more than $2,000 in total prizes

    (c ) utilize live weigh-ins

    (3) Type I fishing contests for cold water fish species are prohibited on waters where the Wildlife Board has imposed more restrictive special harvest rules for targeted cold water fish species including tackle restrictions, size restrictions, and other exceptions to the general fishing regulations, except at Scofield Reservoir where Type 1 fishing contests are allowed for rainbow trout only.

    (4) There is no limit to the number of participants or total prizes at Flaming Gorge and Echo Reservoirs.

    (5) Type I fishing contests for cold water fish species may not be held

    (a) on Free Fishing Day except at Echo Reservoir.

    (6) Fish taken in Type I cold water fishing contests may not be culled.

    The comment made at the Derby drawing appearde to be placing blame on the Daggit County Sheriff "All the red & blue lights up the road"

    Careful Roger, I don't want to hear your heart missed a beat and you fell over board. But on the other hand I wouldn't mind seeing it a bit larger since my eye sight isn't what it use to be.
