So?

Does the guvmint permit you to go outside? Unless FISHING is expressly forbidden in the order from the MAN, go fish. IF you want to....

Fishing is an outdoor activity.
Outdoor activities are encouraged, as long as you are practicing social distancing.
It's not that complicated.
You don't need a comprehensive list of approved activities.
We aren't living in a police state, just an ordinance to keep people spread apart far enough to preclude the spread of an infectious disease.
You aren't going to be arrested or ticketed for fishing, unless you are violating some other law.

The fear mongering I've seen on here has been extremely troubling.

I hope you don't think I have been fear mongering....I have made quite a few tongue-in-cheek posts about the over-reach of the authorities. I guess the point I was trying to make was go out and fish. Hopefully this is as bad as it gets.

I was actually really upset about Amistad closing the ramps, it is the only lake I can get to in an hour or less from here.....& I finally caught fish. Grrr.

Promise I am not at home wringing my hands over this deal, but I am a little pissed about the panic button being pushed by the elected officials. I don't think they read the guidelines from the CDC :https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/community/schools-childcare/guidance-for-schools.html

Anyway. I am going fishing Fri Sat and Sun. I would have gone today if I had access to Amistad.....Grrr.

It doesn't need to be listed. Those are just examples. You can go fishing

The post Denton County put out on face book listed hunting, fishing and golf as outdoor activities that can be done.
