Utah · Channel catfish

Can you keep a channel catfish in Utah?

Yes, with limits

Great Salt Lake (near the state marina / Antelope Island Causeway)

Open year-round
Size
No size limit stated
total length
Daily bag
8
per person per day (statewide default - Great Salt Lake carries no water-specific rule of its own)
Possession
16
total you may hold

Same situation as this water's largemouth bass and crappie entries: no dedicated Great Salt Lake rule exists in the guidebook, so the statewide default applies by default, not by a water-specific listing.
