Friday I went to 世博园. They have an area where you can fish. Of course you have to pay a fee to fish.

I don't know since I don't fish, I didn't inquire. Many places have signs that says "No fishing" but the Chinese people think it's only a suggestion and fish anyway. When in Rome...

There is a set fishing season on Dianchi, and it finished last week. Dianchi waters are monitored and policed. Having said that I often see people fishing along the tributaries. People do fish illegally, but when and where is up to you to find out.

If you mean fishing with a pole, men are doing it just about anywhere with a nice view that isn't Haigeng or DaGuan park main compound (just next to it is fine). Don't know the exact legality, but I have never seen anyone of the men, and it seems to be men only, ever approached by anyone for anything except the how's the fishing going conversation.

If you want to fish by boat, now that is definitely regulated and only allowed in a strict season.
