Contest draws anglers to Rockport Reservoir

Jeff DeMoss Standard-Examiner

Last updated Wednesday, January 18, 2012 - 3:05pm

Over the past couple of weeks, anglers have been flocking to Rockport Reservoir in hopes of hooking into a prize catch of a different kind.

A contest in which tagged fish can be redeemed for cash and prizes has made Rockport one of the area's most popular ice-fishing spots this winter. Anglers by the hundreds have been drilling holes through the reservoir's thick ice in pursuit of the $2,500 top prize.

Recently, wildlife officials tagged and released 28 rainbow trout weighing about 1 1/2 pounds each into the reservoir. Each fish was given a number to correspond with a given prize.

SALT LAKE CITY — A year ago, snow was falling in Utah at about twice the average rate and resorts were packed with crowds of tourists reveling in the white stuff.

Now the state’s snowpack is at about 50 percent of average, and one resort without snowmaking capability hasn’t even opened for the season.
