      I'm glad that they were helpful to you, that was the whole reason for making them! I kind of got side tracked with life recently, but I still have the rest of the series planned out and I'll be working on getting them out sooner rather than later!

    Subscribed and I don't do that very often, just got my first license set, found a medium-light budget rod at Canadian tire, never fished before. You helped make the decision to take the plunge. Started camping crown land recently, and reminded me I always wanted to try fishing. Looking forward to more beginners videos. Do you know any good lakes or crown land spots you don't mind sharing to fish ? and also any lure kits you would recommend on amazon for beginners?

    Hi there, what's the situation on outdoor cards? Do I need to buy one in order to get a fishing license, or do I need to buy both or just a fishing license?

    • @jeffdicks
      @jeffdicks  3 роки тому

      If you live in Ontario, yes, you need an outdoors card AND a fishing license. There are certain circumstances where an individual does not need a license and/or outdoors card. You can find them in this link:

      That is correct. Your hunting and/or fishing license is tied to your outdoors card, at least in Ontario.

    I'm from down South...in the US. I'll be attending a family reunion in Hamilton. As a waterman, I bought a year-long non-resident Ontario fishing license. The website did not explain the difference between a sport and conservation--the link was missing as all other licenses had links to definitions. Thanks bc I was wondering!!!

      That depends on where you live. If you google your province or state and just add "fishing regulations" at the end, you should be able to find it pretty easily.

    Hi i just have two question. Im planning to go on fishing for the first time.
    1. If me and my wife is going to go fishing is it okay to have one license? (Im the only one who’s going to catch fish) shes going to watch me take a picture and chill.
    2. Im residing in ontario. Do i need conservation license and outdoors card or just conservation license is enough?

    • @jeffdicks
      @jeffdicks  3 місяці тому

      1. If she isn't fishing, she doesn't need a license to simply be present. But if she picks up the fishing rod while the line is in the water at the same time a Conservation Officer comes around and sees it, you'll have a hard time convincing them that she wasn't fishing. My advice, just get a license for each of you. That way if she wants to give it a try, she can without worrying about it. To be clear, the fishing license is for more than just catching fish, it's your legal permission to participate in recreational fishing activities.
      2. For most people in Ontario, your fishing license is tied to your outdoors card. So you can have an outdoors card without a fishing license, but you can't have a fishing license without an outdoors card. There are some very specific exceptions to that rules, so I would encourage you to have a thorough read through the general fishing regulations AND the rules for the specific Fishing Management Zone (FMZ) you'll be in.

    So if I have a military ID I don’t need a fishing license ?? Is that valid in every state?

    • @jeffdicks
      @jeffdicks  4 місяці тому

      That is a policy for fishing regulations in Ontario, Canada. Residents of Ontario that have their NDI20 or NDI75 do not need to purchase an outdoors card or fishing license to fish here. Non-ontario residents, military, veteran or otherwise still have to buy them.
      I'm not familiar with the different state regulations for the United States. Your best bet is to look up the regs for whatever state your in.

    • @jeffdicks
      @jeffdicks  Рік тому

      That is not correct. There may be some specific lakes that require the use of baroness hooks, but in general, barbed hooks are fine. The only way to know for sure is to read the regulations for whichever Fishing Management Zone your in to see if there are specific rules for specific waterbodies

    • @jeffdicks
      @jeffdicks  Рік тому +1

      You can head on over to the Ministry website and find the regulations for the zone your fishing in. If you are under 18, you don't need a fishing license and you are allowed the equivalent of a sport license. But read your regulations for a definitive answer! Hope that helps

    For people who are under 18 do you need both an outdoors card and a fishing license to fish legally or do you just need an outdoors card?

    • @jeffdicks
      @jeffdicks  Рік тому

      The persons described below can carry a licence, permit, certificate or identification card issued by a federal, provincial or territorial government of Canada that indicates their name and date of birth and use it as a fishing licence.
      Ontario and Canadian residents who are under 18 or 65 years of age or older.
      If you are a resident of Ontario and you are UNDER the age of 18, you do not need an Outdoors card or a fishing license, just have some form of government issued identification with you and that acts as your license. Once you turn 18 you need both an outdoors card and fishing license. Of course that is just for Ontario, if you live in another province or in the U.S., check your local provincial or state regulations.

      Uhm, not in Ontario. I can't speak for anywhere else. I would be surprised to learn that a province or state required that, though. Best bet would be to look up your local fisheries regulations.
