Fish for Free Across in Ontario this Family Day Weekend

February 15, 2026

This weekend marks the first opportunity to fish for free in Ontario in 2026.

When planning your ice fishing trip, be sure to check ice conditions by contacting local operators and wear appropriate gear for warmth and safety.

Catch and size limits will continue to be in effect as do restrictions in sanctuaries. More information is available in the fishing regulations.

The next free fishing event is during Mother’s Day Weekend.
