Fishing is enjoying a resurgence during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources reports it has sold 100 thousand more fishing licenses this year than it did in 2019.
It is easy to practice social distancing while fishing on a creekbank or in a boat.
With more than 15,000 lakes in Wisconsin there are plenty of opportunities.
The D-N-R points out – fishing can also have a positive impact on a person’s mental health.
