Wait, didn't he make a campaign promise that he wouldn't mandate masks and leave it up to the states....
First campaign promise broken on day one.

Who cares? That's my thought on it. I’m not wearing one at the lake.

I don’t think either of those lakes are “National Parks”

Funny how quickly folks here forget that we were just talking about a Legend Mark Pack dying from Covid and now some are questioning what works and what doesnt and making it political. If your out on water i would bet a paycheck no one is going to write u a ticket. Stay Healthy and Tight Lines to all.

Actually it is worded on "federal property", thus the water and the land under it is "federal property"


Semantics

"This executive action will direct the agencies to take action to require compliance with CDC guidance on mask wearing and physical distancing in federal buildings, on federal lands and by federal employees and contractors," said Biden counselor Jeff Zients, who will be the administration's Covid-19 response coordinator.“


So we do or don't have to wear a mask while alone on federally controlled waters? Just checking to make sure I conform, wouldn't want to catch anything from myself while I am on federal property

Technically the water is federal property

Stinking fish have been social distancing from me all last year, esp. the crappie. Only fished for bass a few times, (trying to fill the freezer with some crappie fillets). Maybe I should have worn a mask and they would not have recognized me...lol.

If Amistad is then wouldn't Falcon be too?

FYI it is federal property up to elevation 307 all around the lake with access granted to the state for the state park and Zapata county for the ramp up there. I believe there’s also private leases as well, mostly for grazing.

There is NO data that shows mask either work or they don't. The CDC recommends N95 mask and they have to be fitted. If you wear a mask a touch your face 2,000 times a day that is much worse. Wash your hands.. If I am on my boat I wear a face mask to keep the sun off of me so I guess I am good.. I don't think it does any good because when it is cold I can see my breath come through the mask on cold days. If someone gets a ticket for not wearing a mask on on federal property that would be crazy but it would not surprise me.

Yeah I think so to an extent. However, I had Covid over the holidays and was doing everything the CDC advises. Still wear it more for those around me since the case counts are still so high. I honestly think I will get it again as it is probably more like the common cold/flu and we’ll end up having to get an annual shot. It’s not something you really want and mine was pretty mild but really drained me. Test positive 12/19 negative 1/2 and just got smell back this week. Started back working out two weeks ago and still get pretty fatigued during and after working out.

Don’t read the rules as required on the lake.........

It just amazes me that they still talk about it everyday and to wash your hands. Hell people we know it’s been shoved down our throats for months you are either going to wear a mask or not. Your not going to change anyone’s mind on what they think is best for them. Yes the virus is real yes people wear mask if they choose to give it a break. Funny how they say the flu was non existent this year because everyone is complying and wearing a mask, but yet COVID is staying around and it’s a virus as well right? So if the mask worked for the flu virus why not the COVID virus?

Respectfully: Its a personal choice choice for sure hopefully based on the individuals analyzing of available data and input and using this info to do what is best for their family. Covid is real and it came to my house a couple days after Christmas. My wife and I both tested positive and spent the last couple weeks sick as we could be. Everything: fevers, headaches, coughs, low SPO2 and the worse was absolute nausea for over two weeks. As of yesterday I have lost over 20lbs. I am exactly Mark Packs age. I don’t know why it killed him and not us. But despite the complete tragedy and loss to the Pack family I will still continue to use the brain God gave me to analyze the data available to me. Liberal California is the most locked down, “compliant”, mask wearing state in the nation and their Covid numbers are out of control. Ya, I’m going to analyze information like that when making my decisions!
