I was told by a biologist and I think I've seen it posted on the DWR's web page. I'm not sure exactly how much damage each type of bait fishing does but I do know that Powerbait's pollute the water when it dissolves. I would email TomP for more info.
The average of 14" is from the gill net survey conducted last year and from my own 40+ fish days on this lake. There is some fish over the 20" mark but not enough to raise the average in the lake.
I fished Kolob last year and every time I sent a Conservation Officer to the lake. I know that at Kolob between the two officers in Cedar and St. George they issued over 400 tickets.
Most of the people I seen bait fishing their didn't care about the regulations and I don't think they have a license. Everybody I seen bait fishing new it was artificial flies and lures but one and they picked up and left. If you do see people doing this take the time and email the DWR or call the poaching hotline.
