If we are in a lockdown and we can only leave our house for food and doctors appointments then can we go fishing if that's where I get our food from?

Yes.
I can just walk out my back door.
A lock down is not enforceable anyways unless we’re under martial law from my understanding.
DNR sent out an email a few days ago encouraging people to go fishing and hiking

Apparently some states are waiving fees for hunting and fishing licenses. So I’d say yes!
The state’s definition of a lockdown is for nonessential businesses to not bring their employees into the office. Lockdown is not the right word.
Looks like we can still go fishing.

Michigan state parks are open, for now, but campgrounds are closed as the state launches into a stay-at-home order from Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.
State park campgrounds, lodging facilities and shelters will remain closed through April 13, according to a press release from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources. Campers who reserved a spot already will get a refund.
However, Michigan’s state parks, recreation areas, state boat launches, state forests and other resources will remain open in line with Whitmer’s order, according to the release.
Still, that could change if the rules of the order aren’t respected, DNR Director Dan Eichinger said in the release.
Whitmer’s order — which requires Michiganders and businesses shutter their doors except for essential needs — allows for walking, hiking, running, cycling and other recreational activity as long as there’s a distance of6 feet from someone who is not in the same household.
