Environment Minister Scott Moe has announced another free fishing weekend in Saskatchewan this Saturday through Monday.  He says this means everyone including visitors from outside the province can fish in Saskatchewan on the Family Day weekend without having to purchase a licence.

Anglers are reminded that all other fishing regulations, including possession limits and reduced limits on some lakes and rivers remain in effect for the free fishing weekend.  Many of the rules that apply to angling remain the same for ice fishing but anglers should consult the Angler’s Guide to become familiar with the rules that are specific to ice fishing before heading out.  Anyone planning to take fish out of the province must purchase a licence.

  Angler’s Guides are available wherever fishing licences are sold and more information can be found online at www.saskatchewan.ca/fishing.
