Emergency changes to the guidebook

  • DAILY BAG LIMIT INCREASE FOR TROUT: Navajo Lake (Kane County)— (PDF format)
    • The daily bag and possession limit for trout is increased to 8 trout. This change is effective from May 11, 2012–January 1, 2013. A section of the dike at Navajo Lake failed, resulting in the draining of the lake to a lower than normal level. The low water level at the lake will likely result in the loss of fish. Limits are being temporarily liberalized to allow anglers to harvest trout that would otherwise be lost. Plans are underway to repair the dike when water levels reach a point which will allow construction work to begin.
