Get the fishing rods ready!
The Ontario government is celebrating this Canada Day by encouraging fishing enthusiasts and first-timers alike to enjoy free fishing from Saturday, June 29 to Sunday, July 7th.
“I welcome anyone curious about fishing to experience the excitement and satisfaction of this great sport firsthand,” says Graydon Smith, Minister of Natural Resources. “Wherever you are in Ontario – urban or rural – there are abundant opportunities to enjoy free fishing in celebration of Canada Day.”

If you are fishing for free during this period, you must follow conservation licence catch limits and carry identification issued by the provincial or federal government, showing your name and date of birth.
