Fishing literally means catching fish in the water, and the popular saying is to fish in troubled waters, which means taking advantage of chaos to gain personal gain.

But now I'm basically lazy, distracted from my daily work and not doing my job well.

According to Meng Niang Encyclopedia and Baidu Encyclopedia, this word refers to a way for Wenzhou students to answer questions that they can't do in exams.

In the face of difficult problems or competition questions, some people are not good enough, and they can only know the truth by asking teachers or looking at the answers.
