So my current game has a river right up in the upper left corner, and the water is completely within five tiles of the edge, with the exception of eight water tiles, all six tiles from the edge.  There are two tiles of land on the map edge itself.  I've discovered the ban on construction close to the edge - is it possible to build a safe fishing hut here?

Raised bridges can't be broken by building destroyers, so that should be safe enough.

A bit of channeling which can get within three tiles I believe, will let you draw the water out to a safer location to fish from.

Channeling (and all mining operations) can be done one tile from the edge. Walls (and fortifications I believe) require five tiles between the edge. Bridges can be built right next to the edge.

So, constructing raised bridges and then raising them will effectively become a wall. A wall that can be right next to the edge of the map.

Statues also help, but I'd advise letting the fishers take their risks with a nearby bunker. I always have a surplus...
