Be careful out there

Some have felt safe traveling and fishing with close friends, because neither of them are showing any signs of illness.  New research is finding that this is also risky:

I will be fishing alone in my boat for at least the next month (April).  No need to push my luck.

Bob, I think that’s prudent,  , I fish alone almost entirely, but that says more about my personality that anything,

Tough to maintain 6’ distance when on a boat, unless you have a big boat…but shore fishing shouldn’t be an issue. Drive up seperately, maintain 6’ along the bank, and you will be fine.

Living in Davis County, as I understand the current rules, there really isn’t anywhere I can legally launch my boat right now.

Kent,

That is definitely not true.  There are many places you can legally launch a boat right now.  Whether you want to actually fish those ponds is an entirely different story.  Close by, you will have a couple of options: Mantua and Pineview come to mind.  I little further out, in a few weeks or so will be Lost Creek.  And then there is Bear Lake.  There are at least two boat launches there that aren’t part of the State Park system up there.  The Utah side of the lake State Park does not include 99.99% of the lake itself within it’s boundries.  There is one private launch in Garden City, UT and one lauch in St Charles, ID.  Utah Lake is wide open for your fishing pleasure at the present time.  So, there are several options for you to legally launch your fishing water craft.  Go for it.

With Davis County being under a mandatory stay-at-home order I believe that I would be violating the law to drag my boat out of the county.  Whether or not that is actually the case I will choose to leave the boat parked for now.

Grand-daughter got married Saturday. Now I ask, is this taking “social distancing” a bit too far?

Stay safe every body and we will get through this.

Maybe just a tad.
