What a crock of shit, I am so sick of these bullshit attempts due to boredom to close down the waterways.
Two wheels are better than four, keep the rubber side down.

It doesn't say why they want to do it.

last year a supreme court ruled that the stream beds of private land are public. as long as you llegally recreate and access the water from a public access point you can fish private property. (you have to stay in the water)
but if you go to utahonthefly.com they have 20 threads that are about 10 pages long talking about this bill.

i would also like to say that that information is not accurate. it won't close all other waters. just those sections of water will have limitations on it. but alot of people have misunderstood the bill. even I had a hard time reading it.. I had to read the stupid bill 3 times.
this is a good read. http://scarles.org/blog/
heres HB 187 http://le.utah.gov/~2009/bills/hbillint/hb0187s01.htm
I don't see how a pattion is going to help??? but there is a way to help... Write/call/email your representatives

I have written my rep. got a lame answer back. The bill will close waters that were opened to anglers by the state supreme court, as long as we did no harm to the surrounding ground, the angler stayed within the water ways they were good to fish any water. This bill wishes to take that opportunity away.
Keep writing, calling and emailing maybe we will get heard, but with the money backing this I doubt we get heard at all.livinutoutdoors.com
Don't talk unless you can improve the silence.
The trout do not rise in the cemetery, so you better do your fishing while you are still alive. SGH

There's really no issues here with it at all, I guess that's what you get when it's been around for so long and not something new.
