Looked at a local tackle shop’s website asking visitors NOT to come for fear of spreading the virus to locals who could then inundate local health facilities beyond their capacities. Just wondering if others have seen similar advice to visitors who want to fish distant streams and rivers.
The face book pages of “Parcher’s resort and South lake Landing” and “Visiting Bishop” in Eastern California has been discouraging visitors since the beginning of the pandemic. Now they are open but cautious. The Covid-19 count in Mono and Inyo counties are some of the lowest in the state. Jim
I don’t need no stinkin warning 
Happy 4th all and many more
May you all be safe , well and able to wet a line as often as you like,
Discouraging customers/clients would not fit my business model. We’re NOT talkin Bus Depot here, it’s a Fly Shop where client traffic could easily be controlled for numbers, masks, social distancing etc.

Not to be contrary … yah, right! it’s me! … maybe they’re also concerned about the other people in town? Neighbors? Old people? Ill people?? Are the fishermen/women staying in town? Eating in town? Maybe they don’t want the Covid numbers to rise there?
Hey Betty,
Apperently the “big picture” went a bit over my head, not a rare occasion lately. I assumed the “discouragement” statement was specific to the Fly Shop and not the general community…in which case I would not totally disagree.

“Hey” Betty.
Lest you misunderstood, the “Hey” in this/the above salutation, was intended as it was used by Gomer Pyle in “Hey Andy” and not the alternative confrontational implication.

Whereas, HRH or Swamp Witch would be preferred, certainly Hey works well. Just so long as it isn’t HAY, as in the connotation of old gray mare. :rolleyes: Happy Thursday, All!!!
There’s nothing wrong with old, gray mares. I’m perfectly willing to share an apple with a friendly one.
