|---|---|---|
| Closure | Freshwater fishing is prohibited in National Parks unless opened under National Parks Fishing Regulations; a National Park Fishing Permit is required where open; the provincial angling licence is not valid there | Year-round |
| Classified waters | A Classified Waters Licence is required, in addition to the basic angling licence, to fish a stream during the period it is classified (Class I or Class II, per the Water-Specific Tables) | Year-round |
| Licence | Family Fishing Weekend (Father's Day weekend in June, plus the preceding Friday): Canadian residents may fish without a basic non-tidal licence; conservation surcharge stamps and Classified Waters licences are still required where applicable | Year-round |
| Licence | Anglers may state their Fish and Wildlife ID (FWID) instead of producing a basic angling licence, Classified Waters Licence, or White Sturgeon Conservation Licence; a paper or electronic licence is still required as proof of Conservation Surcharge Stamps | Year-round |
