Currently the only place in utah that has a problem the invasives is Lake Powell or lakes in the southern part of the state, that I don't fish. Not that there aren't some people in Utah that travel to Powell then come up to Idaho but it's just as likely that someone in Idaho would take their boat to Powell, then back to Idaho. Maybe that bill should also include a fee for anyone from Idaho that takes their boat to Powell and brings it back to Idaho.
One thing that happened in Utah last year was that they had plans to raise our fees for our yearly State Parks pass, their proposal was to double the fees. In the end they cut that fee increase in half, which wasn't bad. The same thing could happen to this bill, they shoot for the sky but in the end take much less. At least that is what I hope happens but time will tell.
