Permits needed for fishing

The need for a resident’s angling permit for rivers depends on the type of waterbody and how many rods and lures you will use.

In this permit area, you will need a resident’s angling permit for rivers when lure fishing in sections with rapids and running water. You will also be required to pay the fisheries management fee, unless you are under 18 years of age, over 70 years of age, or are 65 years of age or older as of 31 December 2023.

If you are lure fishing with only one rod and lure in still waters, such as river pools, payment of the fisheries management fee is sufficient. You will also require a resident’s angling permit for rivers when fishing with multiple rods or lures.

Hook and line fishing and ice fishing are fully prohibited in running and rapids sections of waters with migratory fish stocks (i.e. also this permit area). In still waters, hook and line fishing and ice fishing are permitted free of charge with one rod. If you are hook and line fishing or ice fishing with more than one rod, you are required to purchase a resident’s angling permit for rivers and pay the fisheries management fee.
