The citizen board voted unanimously to adopt new regulations proposed by the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, including opening most Utah waters to fishing year round. Year-roun- d fishing will greatly increase fishing opportunities for Utahns while dispersing fishing pressure throughout the year. In addition, Utah fisheries managers are preparing an entirely new format for the fishing regulations. The 1985 Fishing Proclamation will be in newspaper tabloid format with a map, general to the area section where their five-memb- er regulations and specific . area regulations on special waters. An individual will simply check the general regulations, then refer favorite fishing water is located, to determine if any special seasons or limits apply. The new regulations keep the eight trout bag limit year round with some exceptions. In northern Utah (Cache, Weber, Morgan and Davis counties) the winter limit on rivers and streams will be four trout; limits on lakes and reservoirs will remain at eight. Salt Lake area rivers and streams will have a two trout limit during the winter. These reduced winter limits are necessary on the low elevation streams that generally have good access and high fishing pressure. Elsewhere in the state, limits will not vary from summer to winter. Board member Jerry Little remarked, "Winter fishing should of provide a season of sport, not one harvest. It's a recreational experience rather than simply filling the freezer." One controversial issue dominated discussions of the Board and citizens attending the meeting: the Green River below Flaming Gorge. The Board hear comments from the public at two public meetings in September, during a comment period in October and at the meeting. Dr. Hugh Hogle, Board member from Salt Lake City, proposed to adopt the DWR recommendation saying, "We are violating the public trust if we deviate from the proposed regulations this late in the decision process." Fishing on the Green River will be permitted year round with artificial lures and flies only. The bag lima will be two trout under 13 I'H and one over 20. A major concern addressed by the Board centers around the proposed limine fee increase and year-rounfishing.

Of these, 91 percent took Vitamin C. He says that when the study looked at the diets of the elderly, only 14 percent of them needed the extra Vitamin C. Furthermore, the study indicated that few of the elderly were taking the vitamins because their doctors prescribed them. A study of 812 Utah grade school children indicated that Vitamin C was also the most frequently taken supplement for this group, Hendricks says.
