Apparently their wives are real ball busters because they can't be enjoying themselves in some of the conditions they play in. So, would they lie to avoid getting sent back home? You better believe it. When it comes right down to it I guess I would too but for a completely different reason in that I just can't get enough and absolutely hate it when I can't get out there. Same as fishing - I just never wanna quit and go home. Now the weather deal you're referring can definitely readjust my way of thinking though as I ain't quite as hardy nor as foolish as I used to be!

Today I was fishing on one of the Bella Vista lakes, a boat comes idling out from one of the boat launches, comes over close to me, and the guy starts a conversation with me. Asks me how the fishing was so far for me etc., and in the course of the conversation, Table Rock comes up. I mention to him that I fish out of Big M often and lo and behold, he had launched there yesterday. What a coincidence! He told me that there were about 10 rigs there yesterday, he got in the water but had to do a lot of maneuvering to get his trailer backed in, as only about a third of the lot was above water and some of the rigs were parked in such a way as to be tough to get around.

mrgungho Posted March 24, 2020 Author Posted March 24, 2020 30 days "Stay at Home" order begins tomorrow at Midnight for Greene County. With the exception of essential jobs, groceries etc. This is about to get really interesting. I guess even if I wanted to go out to try to catch some fish for my family to eat that's off limits now. Seems insane to me. "Some go to church and think about fishing, others go fishing and think about God."

I'm not 100% sure who makes the final call but I know the Greene county health dept and the Springfield mayor are involved.
