If you’ve always wanted to try Ice Fishing, then this is the weekend to do so! From Saturday, February 15 – Monday, February 17, 2014, Manitobans and visitors will be able to enjoy ice fishing without needing a Manitoba fishing licence (except in national parks where a federal licence is still required)
“Ice fishing is a great way to enjoy the outdoors and take part in one of the many winter activities available on lakes and rivers around the province,” Minister Mackintosh said. “With free admission to our parks this month and free fishing over the Louis Riel Day long weekend, there’s never been a better time to take advantage of the beauty of a Manitoba winter.”
This is the fourth winter Family Fishing Weekend to be offered in Manitoba. A free fishing weekend is also offered in the summer. For more information, call 204-945-6784 or visit: www.gov.mb.ca/waterstewardship/fisheries/recreation/pdf/11guide.pdf.
