Petition Action

Open Fisheries and fishing lakes during COVID-19.

Petition Details

This main outdoor activity respects all social distancing rules without having being imposed.
The are a lot of lakes where anglers could relax and maintain a more than 10m between them. ( So their fishing lines don't mix )

Additional Information

Allow fishing on private lakes where anglers could hire boats or fish from the bank.
Remember that us Anglers maintain at least 10m between us so our fishing lines don't mix.

Also, if we compare a lake of almost 1000-2000 square meters that is outdoor and could host around 50-100 anglers, with a supermarket that is 200 square meters and hosts more than 100 people in a enclosed space.

The risk of spreading the disease is way low if your going fishing than buying from supermarkets.

Allow us to benefit from this beautiful whether.
