Sorry but your wrong. if the sign is posted that there is no fishing, you can still be charged by enforcement officers for disobey sign. I know this for a fact as an enforcement officer my self. just sharing my experience.

Yes, as posted above your reply, I admitted my comment was erroneous and quoted section so of the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act that gives municipality power to enforce their own bylaws regarding access in municipality parks. The statement should clarify the difference between city owned parks which, although public, are municipally owned and thus technically not public, vs. shorelines which are crown owned that is public and not under city control.
