Guide to Ontario Fishing Techniques and Tackle
Cast off your cares and angle your way through Ontario. With more freshwater lakes and rivers than any region in the world, it’s not surprising that we also have one of the greatest varieties of freshwater fish on earth. Our tasty catch includes northern pike that’ll give you a run for your line, sturgeon (the world’s largest freshwater fish), a plentiful supply and range of walleye, trout, bass and carp, and the best salmon run east of the Rockies. From remote fly-in fishing lodges and camps in the northlands that will thrill the most dedicated sportfisher, to casual and family recreational fishing in our more southerly lakes and rivers, Ontario offers anglers more adventures to experience and enjoy. Whether you’re casting for crappies or reeling in a big one, when you drop bait in Ontario, you’re sure to hook a winner.
