In an effort to prevent the lone reference of Utah Lake to be the punchline about three-eyed catfish the Utah Lake Commission has developed a master plan: Awake Utah Lake.
The plan focuses on five areas: Recreation, Transportation, Land Use and Shoreline Protection, Natural Resources, and Public Facilities.
Here's a story on the plan.
The Commission is holding two open houses to share the plan with the public. The first is Dec. 3 from 5-7 p.m. at Willowcreek Middle School, 2275 W. 300 North, in Lehi. The second is at the same time on Dec. 4 at Utah Lake State Park, 4400 W. Center Street, in Provo.
The picture is of Pat Scouten with a large channel catfish on the end of his line. The shot was a couple of years ago when we were doing our "Catch and Cook" series. And guess what? The fish did not have three eyes.
