The Alberta Free Family Fishing Weekend is the perfect time to get hooked on fishing!  These weekends happen twice a year (during the Family Day long weekend in February and one weekend in the month of July) and allow Albertans and visitors alike to fish without a license. Keep in mind that all other fishing regulations still apply, waterbodies in national parks are not included, and the stream/river/lake you choose to fish in must be open for fishing.

Alberta Free Family Fishing Weekend:

When: February 17-19, 2024
