TUCSON, AZ — For the last several years, Jim Merkel has been fishing at Silverbell Lake.

"Well this is a little oasis in the middle of Tucson. I'm from Long Island where there were plenty of places to fish and here in Arizona you are very limited so this is like a little oasis for us people who love fishing."

Merkel says he's never thought twice about buying his license before putting his line in the water and says it is frustrating when others try to take advantage.

According to Arizona Game and Fish, one of the reasons is so that they are able to re-fill the lakes across Arizona with fish.
