Nova Scotia Fishing Licence

Nova Scotia has a rich angling tradition with a variety of unique species across the province. To fish for any species of fish (except salmon) in fresh water in Nova Scotia, you need to have a General Fishing Licence. You also need to follow provincial and federal fishing rules, including seasons, gear and bag limits.

A General Fishing Licence isn’t valid for salmon fishing but you can find the information about Salmon Fishing Licences in the online link.
