Thanks, Chip. That was succint, but it still leaves me befuddled. Could
some of you legal eagles read through that with me, if you will, and help me
decipher?


I'm an Arizona resident, and looking for a license to fish the Colorado
River below Glen Canyon Dam. It talks about a license for the LAKE (don't
want that) and a trout stamp to catch and creel (C&K, I assume) trout, but I
don't want that either. I can't figure out what is required for an AZ
resident who wants to C&R trout on the Colorado River only.


The river below the dam is entirely in AZ. Looks like you would need an AZ
license. According to this site:

it looks like you would need a minimum of a 5-day license with no trout stamp.
The best place to look, however, is he
