Canadian residents can fish licence-free in Ontario from July 6-14, providing families with a fun and affordable way to enjoy the province’s beautiful lakes and rivers.
Canadians may fish licence-free in provincial waters during Family Fishing Week. Non-residents require licences.
Ontario is home to 160 species of freshwater fish in lakes and rivers across the province.
Family Fishing Week is supported by the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters, Canadian Sportfishing Industry Association and Canadian National Sportfishing Foundation, as well as many local sponsors and dedicated volunteers.
If you fish without a licence during Family Fishing Week, you must follow the conservation licence limits set out in the 2013 Recreational Fishing Regulations Summary.
“Fishing is a great way to spend some time outside, enjoying all the natural beauty this province has to offer while participating in a popular pastime. I encourage you to check out one of the many fishing events taking place this year and join in with family or friends," said David Orazietti, Minister of Natural Resources
