Free Fishing Weekends – Upcoming Dates

Free fishing weekends for 2012 are on the following days:

  • Feb 18, 19 & 20 (Saturday, Sunday & Monday)
  • July 7 & 8 (Saturday & Sunday)

On these dates, Albertans and visitors alike can fish without a licence on any public water body that

  • has an open fishing season
  • does not lie within a National Park

This is the perfect opportunity for curious Albertans to try out this traditional pastime without having to purchase a fishing licence.

Fishing Regs Still Apply!

Alberta’s sportfishing regulations still apply during free fishing weekends.

You can pick up your copy for free wherever licences are sold, at any Fish and Wildlife office, or you can order your copy online by clicking the image to the right.
