You do not need a licence to fish in the province this weekend.
Fish NB Days is a fun way to enjoy recreational fishing and our province’s natural beauty.
Twice yearly — during the Family Day long weekend in February and in the first weekend of June — residents and non-residents can fish without a licence or guide.
Catch limits, closures and other restrictions, however, are still in effect during Fish NB Days.
Access to private waters, Crown reserve waters and Crown leases is still restricted.
During Fish NB Days (June 1-2) anyone can fish without a licence or guide.
It’s a fun way to enjoy recreational fishing with friends and family and a great opportunity to teach someone to fish. pic.twitter.com/RVJA0oUe4r— Government of NB (@Gov_NB) May 28, 2019
