Permits rod and line

Fishable describes a body of water where fishing is practical or permitted: The river is fishable year-round.

A stream might be fishable because of its fish population, accessibility, or legal status.

Weather and water conditions also determine whether a spot is fishable on a given day: After the storm, the lake wasn't fishable for a week.
