Good idea to help spread the word on the regulations.
Not sure if it's really practical though. If you start handing out pamphlets with only a portion of the rules printed on it, SRD may have something to say about that.
You may be better off just getting some of the "Report a Poacher" business cards and hand them to people after you ask people to read the regulations (of which they should have a copy of) for the portion of water they are fishing, and if they see any infractions, to call the phone # on the card and report it.
It's possible that it may be a risky thing to do, no matter which way you decide to go. Talking to a person on the riverbank that has had a few drinks and knows everything before they even started drinking could have bad consequences.
