Summer is already here, and that means Canada's fishing season is in full swing! Canada is one of the top spots for fishing in the world, and it's easy to understand why. From the Pacific Northwest Coast of British Columbia to the lakes and rivers of Ontario, Canada has great fish. People come from all over the world to see what all the buzz is about—especially our friendly neighbours from the south!
Fishing in Canada
Recreational fishing is a huge industry, and Americans make up the vast majority of anglers from outside of Canada.Walleye, trout, perch, bass, and pike are the top 5 fished in Canada, with salmon being another honourable mention. Ontario and British Columbia come up as the top 2 destinations in Canada, because of their diverse and bountiful fish species populations, and beautiful landscapes. Trophy fish continue to be caught here, like this 270kg Great White Sturgeon caught in British Columbia by a 9-year-old in from New Jersey!Whether you've been here 20 times or it's your first—it's an experience like no other. Make sure you're ready for the big trip by checking that you've got all the required documents and licenses before you go. You wouldn't want to be stopped at the border for something small like a 10-year-old minor conviction.And make sure to enjoy your trip! Bonne chance!
