Bunch of UW-Madison students tested positive post-spring break trip this week.
Median incubation is 5 days so this would be about when they would start feeling it if they caught it near the end.
Ugh frozen fish. Just doesn’t taste the same. I might actually take up fishing again this spring. I’ve been buying random new gear for like two years but have never gotten around to getting it ready and using it. Good social distancing activity.
If you get the notion to dig into the fly fishing world pm if you'd like. I can give tips to get into it and keep it simple and relatively inexpensive.
I should get out myself at some point...'fresh' air via windows is not the same as sloshing around in the water.
Fly fishing feels like the one activity that's more boring than staying at home for the last two weeks.
The romanticized huge casts from movies are usually not a thing but whipping a big pike fly around the air would be a good way to make sure everyone keeps their distance.
Haha I used to float tube with the snapping turtles and snakes, much more soothing out here!The romanticized huge casts from movies are usually not a thing but whipping a big pike fly around the air would be a good way to make sure everyone keeps their distance.
Was watching news today and WI has way, way more cases than MN or IA. Like 4-5x more. Weird
Yeah and not sure why...I think it's kind of a 'dead' time really until May for traveling up north and such. I do think plenty in the state ignored the warnings and continued to go out to bars, etc. until they had to close it all down.

Are you implying movie fly fishing scenes wouldn’t be nearly as good if they were a guy doing nothing but roll casts on a tiny creek and constantly swearing cause he’s always hung up on the bank!!
I agree some will. But call centers and mail rooms can't work from home. A large company I do consulting for has most of their employees working from home except for their "operations" staff and some of their IT staff.
I feel like we are def ahead of ia, not sure on mn. Our first community spread was just over two weeks ago...ia was last friday?
