Fishing in Ontario is one of the most beautiful places in the world to plan a fishing trip. I know, I've fished in many areas of Ontario and know what I'm saying. Many thousands of lakes in Northern Ontario have not seen a fishermen's bait cast to them. There are many species of fish throughout Ontario.
If you plan on traveling through and fishing in Ontario there are some things you need to consider before your trip.
You should realize that the costs associated with a trip there is expensive, the Province itself is huge and could cost a lot for travel expenses, accomodations, clothing, licenses and permits, fishing gear, food, water, matches and many other things you'll need.
Its a good idea to make a list of all the things you will need to take on your trip. If you know where your going its a good idea to get some topo maps of the area. Maps of Ontario will come in handy as well.
Some of the fish species you many encounter are:
Northern pike, Largemouth bass, Channel catfish, Smallmouth bass, Muskellunge, Walleye, trout, salmon, whitefish and many non game fish as well.
Regulations While Fishing
Canadians purchase a fishing version of an Outdoors Card with a validation tag on it.
Non-residents of Ontario need a basic license which is signed and has a validation tag attached. These cards cannot be transferred to anyone else. You must carry them all the time in case a Conservation Officer requests to check it.
Conservation Officers and Their Duties
These officers have the right to arrest, seize items, and view and perform searches whenever they see fit.
Just remember to obtain and obey all fishing regulations while fishing in Ontario.
