I know this is an old post, I read about a guy who fished that lake for years, claiming the next world record trout would come out of that lake. That was when I was a kid in Boy Scouts back in the 1970's.   Big trout and Mormons were the only thing I knew about Utah back then.

Ya ever get the feeling that the State and Fed. Fish & Wildlife management agencies just don't like the public resource users.

Well,

1...If his license was expired he should not have been fishing

2... No, Ive never had that feeling at all. All the Game and Fish officers Iv'e encountered here in AZ are fellow hunters and fishers. They have been awesome. Even to the point of offering advice on where to go for deer and elk for someone to go, if after opening day the pressure is crazy!
Guess Im lucky to live where I do. Your state may vary :)

I was a state fishery manager and can tell you without a doubt, it would be the absolute best job in the world were it not for the public.
