As a Guide service business owner on the Lower Mountain Fork River we support a non resident trout stamp specific for the LMF. ALL proceeds of the sale of this stamp goes to supplement trout stocking for the LMF only. I would also support a specific trout stamp for the LIR.
Enforcement of the regulations is the ONLY way the new 3 limit will work. Laws and regs mean NOTHING without enforcement.
The Lower Mountain Fork has had the 3 limit for 15 or so months now, plus BARBLESS HOOKS ON THE ENTIRE RIVER.
In order for the regulations will work is if and when they are ENFORCED on a REGULAR BASIS. The minimal signage we have here means nothing without boots on the ground REGULARLY/DAILY.
I’m a Texas. The cost of my non-resident license to fish OK is worth every penny. With the exception of 2-3 fish a year, I catch and release all fish. Amazing that I can fly fish for trout 62 miles from my home.

My guide service is catch and release only.

Anyone watching know I practice the quick early premature release. No touching required. 🤩
