ThatKidInNY Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 NY is closing all public boat & kayak launches. It's ridiculous. Here's a petition https://www.change.org/p/andrew-m-cuomo-open-nys-boat-launches-for-recreational-use . Thanks y'all. dean_d and SacrificeFishing 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dean_d Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 I could see shut down of state parks because the past few days by me (I live in Rockland ny) there's literally been thousands of people flooding them double parking on streets and mass congregating which is stupid. But also it's stupid to choose boat ramps in more rural areas and even in my state parks that I had to pay to get access too with limited parking and I'm going on lakes where ill be hundreds of acres away from the nearest person Cuomo is a moron.

CaliBassin Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 Ever since the stay in home order here in Ca, everywhere i go is littered with people. Lakes that normally have no one are absolutely packed with people. Super strange but how is fishing not essential? For some, that is how they get their food.

Texasfishn Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 I understand why they are doing it, Coronavirus lives and n metal for up to 5 days, and wood up to 4. So one sick person goes down the ramp, spreading germs, pretty easy to spread it. Fourtanetly, our governor, realizes that a lot of people make a living by use of our waterways, so he left them open.

ThatKidInNY Posted April 16, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 It would make sense to do it in NYC but for the rest of the state it makes no sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is most of the lakes around me are DEC launches so they just shut down 75% of my fishing, luckily I still have a few lakes that aren't DEC launches ThatKidInNY 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDBasser Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 He closed them because I don't know about you but I would rather not get it, keep all my loved ones and friends safe then go fish. I love to fish but this is not a time to be mad over things that you can't do any more like fishing. This is about saving peoples lives, and if people keep going out we won't be able to fish for an even longer time.

First part yes, second part no. This virus is here and not going away. Tomorrow, next month, next year, year after, this is our new normal. Hopefully medical is able to create a vaccine, to which the stupid anti-vaccers won't use anyway. Everything shut down festers poor health from people not getting exercise who physically need it to mental stress and illness associated with. Some people are afraid to go outside, not going to a doctor when they otherwise know they should. Bottom line, politicians are not qualified to make decisions about other peoples lives. As for a boat ramp, it's not even remotely as dangerous as going to a grocery store. I don't know about you or others reading but I'm at a grocery store every week. Sometimes more than once. Take precaution, be smart, no problem. And this around all those people and all the things they touch in an enclosed environment? Not that horribly dangerous fresh air outdoor boat ramp? Not to mention the distance apart on water? I can't hardly imagine how deadly that must be.... It's ridiculous we're not allowed to be there. It's stupid.
