Destinations during this Pandemic scare

I don't know about the actual situation with Covid-19 an lock downs and the whys and wherefores but there are places that we can still go to fish and do whatever we want to . I would like to identify some.
have set in the Mohave in the Mh for 7 months and three here with nothing to do and I am about stir crazy or more so than usual.
Around here, to the east there is a cluster as in Nashville of cases among fairly newly arrived Illegals as in Nashville too. But the lakes right here and the river is crowded on weekends..but I don't have a boat and so on.
White River in Arkansas and other Places there still open for trout fishing? Texas Coast if it is safe? and any suggestions where it is safe and not locked down. Don't say the Arizona Desert. Got to go back there and pick up Mh and some other things but that is it. Anything to do in the Big Bend where you can hook up to water and hopefully sewer and there is something to do for a broken down ole Codger? Or let's see Missouri? Some place where a days boat rental isn't 500.00. How about Safe area on Great Lakes on leeward side of the lakes?
No there ain't no place to rent a boat here but over the mountain and 500.00 a day on waters now crowed by Nashvillans.
Aren't any Rallies going on are there, speaking of which I need to get our deposits back on three.
This isn't an orderly or organized bit here but what can you expect at this time of night and waiting on pain meds to kick in :)
Suggestions suggestions ad maybe see you there.
  • It's not bad out there, since most people are staying away. Most places are closed and so the ones that are open are pretty empty and you can enjoy them with their limited amenities. Think about what you want to do and just go do it. Be safe and wear a mask and all that stuff, but don't stop living your life and the way you know how
  • definitely a good summer to be a boat owner. we used the camper one night in the driveway so far this year. Used the boat a lot though.
  • A long time ago when we were sailors instead of RVers we put our boat into the Tennessee River, I think around Nashville. Went thru the dam that has a rise of 55 feet as I remember. At the other end of the river is Kentucky Lake in Kentucky (surprise?). Good fishing and a few campgrounds in the area.
  • might be time to look for a boat (canoes and portAboats can go on the MH)

    we recently upgraded our little fishing boat to something more family friendly (wife and i have a 6 and 4 year old) since our camping season has been decimated.
