Ross Self, SCDNR's chief of freshwater fisheries, said the State Lakes will be closed for the duration of Governor McMaster's Executive Order. SCDNR staff are currently in the process of posting closed signs on the properties, according to Self.
"We are sorry about this," said Self. "We hope the situation moderates soon so that we can reopen these lakes for public fishing again."
