Stay Safe Stay Home

Hate to beat this thing to death (pun unintended) but I'm starting to wonder how restricted we are going to be. I get the thing about the county waters being limited but there appears to be even more restrictions coming. I have a son (Utah County) who spent the weekend shed hunting in Garfield County. He and some of his friends from his work place were camped in a remote area about one hour out from Blanding when they were confronted by a Garfield County Sheriff who told them to leave asap inasmuch as they were not residents of the county. He produced some kind of health advisory document that had just been adopted that prohibited non-county residents from recreating in Garfield County. If other counties or Gov Herbert enact something similar state wide it will impact more than just a restriction on county ponds. I never thought the C-19 bug would significantly impact our non-spectator sport of fishing but who knows where this thing is going??

I'm willing to do my part to get this virus under control but I sure hope it does not advance to the point where even fishing is prohibited. Will someone please tell me I am wrong and assure me they will not take my fishing away.
