If this COVID-19 stuff doesn't turn the corner in the next month or so it could be a really tough year for any of the businesses up there who rely on the fishermen.  :crazy:  Wonder if they've ever called off Opening Day? :scratch: I've never heard of it, if they have. :confused: Might this year. :pouty:

yea not sure........i've heard agruements about shelter being a neceseccity so resorts and motels would be aloud to stay open. thats the arguement anyway  :scratch:

i see no gain in not allowing outdoor activities. all i know it sure was weird driving by the sportsmans cafe this weekend in deer river with no cars parked there. the sign said they were open for takeouts....... kinda takes the idea of eating there away.

i stopped at the bowstring store for minnows, kinda a cutie working there,  :smoking: :sleazy: but seen a poster that also said Rileys was still open to takeouts...................

Would they stay open even if there's no customers? :scratch: Many will probably be too scared & the rest will be too broke? :sad: Bet 3/4 of the families live paycheck to paycheck these days & that's with both parents working. So what happens when they're both gettin UE? :crazy:

Glenn, well according to them if any fish would happen to be alive they are going to get big. What an answer. Or buy your own fish and put them in there if you want fish. At least you would think they would say that come spring they will check it out but the money goes to walleye stocking and that lake doesn't fit into that class. I will contact them come ice out. Good luck,it is a cool lake.

With the current economic situation I wouldn't be surprised if some of these people(GR) are worried about their jobs. Let alone how much of a budget they are allowed by the big wigs in St Paul. Bet none of them in St. Paul get laid off or have their budget slashed. :thumbs: :pouty:
