Saturday May 10, 2025 to Sunday May 11

Free Fishing Weekend

Event Website

Four times a year, Canadian residents can fish in Ontario for free. This means you do not need to buy a fishing licence if you want to fish during:

  • Mother’s Day Weekend (May 10–11, 2025)
  • Father’s Day Weekend (June 14–15, 2025)
  • Family Fishing Week (June 28–July 6, 2025)

 

While fishing during a free fishing period you must:

  • follow conservation licence catch limits
  • obey size limits and sanctuaries
  • follow the fishing regulations
  • carry a permit or identification card issued by the provincial or federal government, showing your name and date of birth

 

Windsor Essex is a peninsula surrounded by water – making this region a lure for fishing enthusiasts year-round.

Chart your course through Windsor Essex’s three bodies of water with the help of our Fishing Guide!
