Well everyone it has come to my attention and for those who dont know of this yet. I-84 is apparantely closed to park off the side of the road unless it is designated a parking area. I received a lovely citation last week for parking in probably one of the most prominent fishing pulloffs in the area.
What this means is if you pull off to fish the river and it is off of 84 you will receive a $25 ticket. It seems UDOT the rightful owners of the roads not the tax payers has decided they dont want people parking off the road and are now flexing their muscles and making the local authorties hand out citations. If you cant tell I am extremely pissed off about this matter. These are areas I have parked and fished around for over 10 years. I know guys that have been going to some of these spots for over 30. And now all of the sudden you just cant pakr there because they say so. What is the reasoning? the point?
Oh im sure its some security risk based on all the new global threats or some junk like that.
Either way any of you that fish the weber or even care about your freedoms as a citizen of this state should be quite mad about this. Our taxdollars paid for the dang thing at least you could be able to park in a spot that has been parked in for more years than i can count.
