Don't fish, stupid!

This is a command. You call the person "stupid." It is not nice.

Don't fish stupidly.

This is a command. It is not very nice. You tell the person to be smart when he catches fish. I do not know what "smart" fishing is, but a fisherman knows.

I would distinguish "Don't fish, stupid!" (calling the person "stupid") and "Don't fish stupid" (substandard or casual way of saying "Don't fish stupidly").
