It's not. Lots of water isn't necessarily good for fishing, but it is generally good for fish. Increased water and increased nutrients can actually make fish tougher to catch because they have more food sources.
Also, too much water--flooding--can also be bad for fish and potentially even wipe out fish populations. Stream drainages where wildfires burned last year could end up being killed because of the extra ash and silt dumped into streams and reservoirs could also be negatively impacted by the increased ash, silt, and nutrients dumped into them from runoff over barren burnt up ground.
Generally, though, fish like water and the amount of water we are getting is a great thing for fish and fishing.
