Read on OGF this morning that Ottawa officials denying out of state boaters from launching at Catawba and Mazuricks.Said they must self quarantine for 14 days if coming from out of state.

I looked on OFG and didn't see anything about them stopping us from fishing. If they were doing that I think it would be plastered all over the internet. A friend called the DNR the other day and they told him just not to be messing around. Put in and fish, load up and head home.

There were posts on another fishing site that said they were being turned around if out of state.

It appears so.

That is complete bs. I called the Ohio department of health last week and was told I can absolutely travel from out of state and go fishing, as long as when not fishing, I stayed in our rental- ie self quarantine. Fishing is an essential activity. That is straight from the state department of health. So Ottawa county obviously thinks they can make up their own rules.

The reason those soldiers fought in WW2, and the ones before, and the ones after, is for people to have the freedom to question the decisions elected officials make. So, thanks to all those who have preserved that right , and then keep questioning!

What are you getting at Krayfish I am one of those who served but I don't know what you are trying to say. What does questioning have to do with not following the order. Do you get the moral of the donkey story.

I am with Hoytman here. With the way some talk on these threads and others, I am not sure how they ever have gone fishing. Do they stay home and not fish during a normal flu season? Do they use SPF 40,000 when the sun is out? Only go out when there is zero wind? Not to mention the risk of driving to going fishing.

Sheep are one thing, but blind sheep end up living in a country where their rights and liberties have been stripped.

Hey guys, the jackass posting had nothing to do with fishing, or being, or not being, a sheep. So put your tall boots away and put your thinking caps on.
The only thing that jackass represents is that there are a few donkeys that can't figure out how to act or what to do. That's why people come up with sometimes senseless rules that we all must follow. Caveman days, or wild west days, they had other ways of dealing with the mentally less fortunate.
So if you really do get it, you shouldn't be taking it out of context, or offended. Trust me, I'm all for freedom and fishing.

I believe individual counties and cities can in fact add to the limits they feel best addresses the safety and situations facing them directly. Just like how not all states have exactly the same ideas of limits
