    First I'll say I'm only offering an opinion here. The ODNR statement posted here said "non-marina docks remain open at this time." I think the intent here is to say that State Park marina docks (also slips) are off limits or closed. These would be the marinas were you come in and dock your boat. Stay for awhile or overnight. Like Middle Bass Island State Park or the dock at South Bass State park. I would not think the intent is to close launch ramps that technically have a "dock" associated with them (the part you walk out on). One or two or three people from the same city or town that don't have any of the symptoms would probably be fine. It's outdoor non-group (read not soccer or softball, etc.) recreation. Follow the social guidelines when out. I would think that is OK.

    Now, a charter boat with 6 people from out of state or from various locations in Ohio is probably a different situation. The "head boats" even more so. I have no doubt we'll hear from a charter operation on here soon to let us know what they have been told.

    Until we hear something specifically addressing this issue, I would think if you want to go fishing, go. Just keep in mind the number of people you will have on your boat, and where they are from. Follow all the social guidelines. Have some fun, catch some meals, but do it smart and cautiously.
