Just watched our county judge explain what it means here in Stephens county and he said you could go to the lake and fish. He encouraged getting outdoors and fish or other things.

I just spoke with the game warden for Collin County and he said to their understanding fishing is still considered an outdoor activity, which is allowed during shelter in place. He said they aren't going to be kicking people off the lake anytime soon.
