Burbot Captured in Green River (Aug 6, 2010)
Utah Division of Wildlife Resources.
On Jul 28, researchers with the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources found a 21-inch burbot in the Green River below Flaming Gorge dam. Burbot are not native to Utah and are a voracious predator, capable of breeding in both rivers and reservoirs. As a result, they can have a serious impact on both native and sport fish populations. The Division has placed a catch and kill regulation on the fish for anglers, there is no limit to the amount caught; the burbot may not be released and must be killed immediately.
