This is a super event!Tonns of fun and it allows your wife to apprieciate how much you love the sport and why, as well as maybe even getting a youngster involved in the sport of fishing!

Am I correct in assuming you don't need a fishing licence to fish this event if you are a Canadian resident?

Perhaps this is a good opportunity to get a non-fishing parent hooked as well.

Unfortunately parents need a fishing licence, the kids don't.
I guess for this particular event one is not needed but the rest to follow will.
