If and when they do open the campgrounds here, it will be by reservation only. You have to plan two weeks out, and if it's a rainy weekend oh well, you're out of your $50.
Life ain't supposed to be easy.

my son has certainly been getting a lot more fishing in
no school to attend , and no work because he was working at a local supper club.
the other day he went to a Rock county park pond , he comes home he said I think everyone there had just gone to Walmart purchased a cheap pole and had no idea what they were doing.
well that is how they will learn I guess.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

I can sure tell it around here. All my little “secret” spots are over run. I’ve been seeing lots of kids and piles of bikes at the bigger culverts and bridges. Wish I seen more of it. I missed the opener in MN for the bwca but soon as they opened it, I couldn’t get permits for my usually vacant long portage entrances. I had to take 5/27 as the earliest I could get where I wanted. Whole lot more mushroom hunters this year as well in WI and AL.
When you earnestly believe you can compensate for a lack of skill by doubling your efforts, there's no end to what you can't do.

Rods and lures are in short supply here. I have been fishing more often this summer. Can't go out to eat. Not getting together with friends as much. I'm getting bored.
I've had several evenings where I went to one of the spots where I rarely ever see anyone else fishing and found 5 or 6 car loads of people already there. I just drive through and find another spot.

I was told that hunting licenses sales here In WI was up about 20% over last season. And the archery shop said they couldn't keep enough X bows In stock. And had them sold before they were even ordered. I'm betting public land Is going to be a zoo this fall.

It'll be interesting to see if hunting will be on the rise. It is here. Couldn’t even get a “leftover” Fall turkey tag.

My boys have been able to fish almost every day this spring and summer...could be way worse ways for them to spend their time. They usually had a friend or two with them most trips, and even some newbies to the sport. Fun to see kids excited about fishing again. Jim

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.
