This Family Day weekend, from February 18-20, Ontario families and friends can enjoy fishing anywhere in the province without having to purchase a licence or carry an Outdoors Card. There are family fishing events planned across the province, or you can plan your own family event and get a free fishing package by visiting www.ontariofamilyfishing.com. If you plan on ice fishing, it’s important to make sure the ice is thick enough. Ice that looks safe may not be. Before you venture out, be sure to check ice conditions with local ice hut operators or other anglers, let others know where you’re planning to fish and when you plan to return and wear appropriate clothing and equipment for safety and comfort. If you are fishing during free fishing periods, all conservation licence catch limits, size limits, sanctuaries and all other fishing regulations and rules still apply.
