Legally
They require you to have one but i never seen fish and game there just to be on the safe side just get one.
Require a California fishing license to fish at Fairmont ( Lake Evans ) Park. Hope this information helps.
Yes, the park authorites do check people who are fishing for proper verification from time to time. For further info regarding fishing passes please consult the city's Park and Recreation website.
I have fished here for years without one and see other people fishing without one, the fishing isn't really too good there so having one would be a waste
