What if you are caught fishing without a license in Utah?

In addition, you may be required to forfeit your fishing gear and any fish you have caught.

The Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (DWR) is responsible for enforcing fishing regulations in the state. DWR conservation officers regularly patrol Utah's waters, looking for people who are fishing without a license.

If you are caught fishing without a license, you will be issued a citation and may be required to appear in court.

To avoid getting caught fishing without a license, make sure to purchase a license before you go fishing. Licenses are available online, at DWR offices, and at many sporting goods stores.
