23-2-208. Landowners fishing generally.
Notwithstanding W.S. 23-2-202, any individual who owns land wholly containing a lake, pond or ponds which derive their source of water from surface runoff, natural springs or wells may stock the lake, pond or ponds with eggs or fish with the consent and under the supervision of the department or its authorized personnel provided that other game fish regulated by the commission do not occur in the lake, pond or ponds. The individual landowner and the landowner's spouse, children and grandchildren may fish in the lake, pond or ponds without first obtaining a fishing license. Upon removal from the landowner's property containing the authorized lake, pond or ponds, the individual landowner shall provide a written statement to the possessor of any fish verifying the number and species of fish caught, kept and removed from such property. The lake, pond or ponds shall be approved by the department pursuant to commission rule and regulation.
