An old man was seen sitting on a roof in Zhengzhou, Central China's Henan Province, and catching fish from a washbasin using a fishing rod. 

According to a witness from an opposite building, the old man was probably practicing throwing rig with a washbasin. Netizens joked that as long as there are fishponds in the heart, there are fishponds everywhere. As the pandemic has forced people to stay home, many are looking for ways to add more fun to their lives. The story has inspired many netizens who are also doing nothing at home.

The epidemic may have brought inconvenience to many people's lives, but finding something interesting to do is worth trying. Many on the internet have said people should have the same mentality like that of the old man to live a happier life.
