I think we can still go fishing. I was on the lake yesterday, the closest boat to me was at least half a mile away and I didn't come within 20 ft of anyone at the launch.

Doesn't start till 11:59 PM Mon. You can still fish alone, nobody within 6 feet. Passenger seat would be too close but decks should be more than 6 feet if you don't fish from same deck.

They deemed “outdoor activities” as an essential activity so I guess u can still fish?

Or, you could sneak in another word to make it "accept Nitro boat & trailor". I couldn't figure out how to work "sell" in there instead of "sale".

What authority does Clay Jenkins have? This is not an order by the governor. Clay Jenkins is just a Dallas county judge. He is a democrat alarmist. He also said that if we don't take drastic measures the state of Texas could have as many as 480,000 deaths by April as reported by the Dallas Morning News. I looked up his credentials and found out that when he first got into politics in Dallas he was quickly labeled as John Wylie Price's water boy. He is just another extremest liberal like the media blowing this way out of context and that is why there is a nation wide total panic.
According to the governor, most of the counties in Texas have not reported any cases of the virus.

The media should be banned from doing any reporting on the virus and leave it to the medical industry to inform everyone of the truth about the virus and what is needed to defeat it.

TEXAS GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 418.108 which was stated as the Authority in the "Order." Apparently in Texas, a County Judge has the power over a Mayor.

couldn’t agree any more. This whole thing has been blown way out of proportion.be careful and wash your hands and you’ll be find. Most people will experience mild symptoms. Fishing on the lake will be the least likely place to contract or spread the virus. FISH ON!!!

The last time we had this kind of panic in the south was when they quit making Blue Bell.
