Fishing Licenses for the Quetico Park

Purchasing a Canadian Fishing License for a Quetico Park canoe trip just got easier. You can now purchase your fishing license online and may have to because it is unknown whether or not the Quetico Park Ranger Stations will be able to issue them. The Canadians have gone high tech on us and now have a computer based system for issuing their fishing licenses and outdoors cards.

Before you start the license issuing process you’ll want to make sure you have a printer connected to your computer. You will print your own license and will not receive any other copy in the mail. The only thing you will receive in the mail is your Outdoors Card that is good for three years.

In addition to the printer make sure you have the information necessary to complete the license issuing process as well as a Visa, Mastercard or American Express credit card for payment.

There are a few license options for non-residents of Canada to choose from and one must be purchased in order to fish in Ontario legally. There are Conservation Licenses which reduce the number of fish you may have in your possession and regular fishing licenses of different duration. Determine which one is right for you prior to the issuing process.
