Parents, youngsters and wanna-be anglers everywhere are invited to experience Canada’s amazing outdoors!
National Fishing Week is a week-long celebration of recreational fishing in Canada that will be held July 2 to July 10.
With more than 1 million lakes, rivers and streams plus three oceans, Canada is one of the most diverse natural environments on the planet.
The sport of fishing offers Canadians the opportunity to enjoy and experience these areas for their selves.
Whether they’re seeking a little serenity, a getaway with family, or a heart-pounding adventure on the water, fishing offers it all.
National Fishing Week is supported by Catch Fishing, which is a national program dedicated to encouraging Canadians to get outdoors and enjoy our angling heritage throughout the year, while safeguarding fish populations everywhere.
It is supported by federal, provincial and territorial governments, as well as hundreds of organizations and businesses that work hard to ensure sustainable fishing opportunities.
Catch Fishing believes fishing is an amazing activity for Canadians of all ages, whether they’re searching for fun, adventure, or some peaceful time spent with their friends and families.
Through NFW, they encourage Canadians to pick up a rod and reel, get outdoors, and go fishing.
