More waters added to liberalized ice fishing regulations
by Wyoming Game & Fish
January 8, 2014

Wyoming Waters now under the Special Winter Ice Fishing provision have increased from 23 to 26 from the previous 2012-13 fishing regulation period. The three new waters added under the provision are Boulder Lake in Sublette County and Lake Hattie and Wheatland Reservoir #3 in Albany County.

Ice fishing is becoming increasingly popular in Wyoming and while most waters in the state are open under general regulations to ice anglers there are liberalized regulations on the waters covered under the Special Winter Ice Fishing Provision.
On these waters, anglers can use up to six lines when fishing through the ice. The regulation requires that when anglers use more than two lines on these waters, the angler’s name shall be attached to each pole, line, or tip-up. In addition, the angler must be no more than 300 yards from all lines.

On waters not covered under the provision, anglers can use up to two lines.
Waters covered under the Special Winter Ice Fishing Provision are as follows:
Alcova Reservoir in Natrona County
Big Horn Lake in Bighorn County
Big Sandy Reservoir in Sweetwater County
Boulder Lake in Sublette County
Boysen Reservoir in Fremont County
Deaver Reservoir in Park County
Flaming Gorge Reservoir in Sweetwater County
Fontenelle Reservoir in Lincoln County
Glendo Reservoir in Platte County
Goldeneye Reservoir in Natrona County
