Photo by Larry Davis Wildlife report By Brent Stettler DWR writer PRICE- - In the past few years, the Division of Wildlife Resources has made a lot of changes. In the process, we've angered a few people. Almost daily, Division offices receive complaints. Except for feeling better, these people don't accomplish very much by venting their frustrations. There are right and wrong ways to effect change in any organization. An important first step is knowing how the organization runs. Let's take a look at the machinery driving DWR. First of all, hunting seasons and regulations are set by an independent, governor-appointe- d board. During the last legislative session, the former Board of Big Game Control and Wildlife Board were merged. Old members were released and new members are expected to be seated for the first time in August. DWR Director Bob Valentine will assume the po and released June 30: Blanding Area (Blanding 3 and 4 reservoirs)- - Provide good fishing with salmon eggs and yellow marshmallows. Restocking is expected before the July 4 holiday. Fishing at Loyd's has been fair to good with little pressure. Recapture Reservoir is high with little fishing pressure. No report on angling success.

Monticello Lake was and is stocked in mid-Jun- e scheduled for another truck-loa- d before July 4. Fishing success has been variable, ranging from fair to good. Rooster Tail spinners, Powerbait and garlic cheese bait have been used with success. Colorado River- - The water is dropping and better cat fishing is expected in the next few weeks. Grassy Trail- - This water above Sunnyside offers good fishing for 1 1 inch trout. Best baits are salmon eggs, worms and Powerbait. Helper Parkway- - Catchable albino trout will be stocked near the rock structures in the parkway before the July 4 holiday.

Water is fast and muddy below the forks and offers only fair fishing opportunity. From the dam to the forks, the water is clear. Better fishing is expected.

Any letter, addressed to the director in care of the Wildlife Board, will find its way into the hands of Board members, where change can occur. Furthermore, the director is himself sensitive to public opinion and will attempt to correct any agency problem in his jurisdiction.

Best luck will be had in early morning from a boat(electric motors only!)with salmon eggs or The lake received another truckload of fish during the first week of June. It is near full pool. Lake Powell- - The spring flood has resulted in rapidly rising water levels. The rise in lake elevation displaces fish and may confuse fishermen. Spin-a-Lure- s. Wayne Gustaveson recom- mends fishing vertical habitat where fish can move up and g down along a point or wall. Long flats and new trees in the backs of canyons are not real good places to fish yet. They will be as the lake peaks and stabilizes during the summer. Right now, Wayne recommends that anglers fish offshore structure such as dome rocks, the deep end of long points, and reefs in open water areas. Anglers should fish in 5 feet of wafast-slopin- ter with bottom-bouncin- g tackle. Anglers should take advantage of mud lines created by wind and wave action. The mud provides shade and cover for all species but particularly for walleye which are at their most catchable point right now.
