There is a tag leisure=fishing thats already being used
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:leisure%3Dfishing
Bit surprised by the lack of info on the wiki page. I'd have though
someone would have drawn up proposals for a way to tag other info
linked to fishing.
With regards to lawfulness of fishing I think it's a bit more
complicated than yes/no? as pointed out in other emails
Even more surprising, I can't find tagging for a pond or pool, fishery,
you name it, that was fitted for fishing.
People come and pay for fishing (and the wife sits doing her knitting).

Let alone the wife's permission ;-)
Is a map really a good place for a *general* fishing information (database)?
Or is it website=www.local.reglations -> other www?
I think that website= is too often overlooked.
I asked JOSM to recall it in their Preset menus.
land (water?) owner *is* of course appropriate, if he agrees to be
mentioned.
This all recalls me a Natural Science teacher.
- throw any animal in the water, it will come out
- not true
- [cut to the quick] what???
- not the fishes
He told everybody and laughed for 3 days.
