Fish Canada

It won't matter which province you select for your Canadian fishing trip. You will be in for some of the best meals of your life. If it's fresh fish you like, you won't be disappointed.

Most Canadian fishing lodges and resorts will offer the experience of shore lunches. And this is one of the many reasons that anglers come to Canada for their fishing vacations; fish right out of the water and into the frying pan over a hot fire.

The crew at Fishresource.com has many fond memories of eating our tasty catch on the shore of an uncharted island. These memories can hold something special for every angler. Visit a Canadian fishing lodge and make some memories of your own!

Canada is a huge country and it's immense distances means that most visitors confine their explorations to the area around one of the main cities - usually Toronto, Montréal, Vancouver or Calgary for arrivals by air, however, some of the best fishing can be found in the less traveled paths. All the towns throughout the provinces of Canada have one thing in common with each other - they are within easy reach of the great outdoors and fantastic fishing.

The Eastern Region

Québec is set apart from the rest of the continent by way of the individuality of its French tradition. Montréal, the largest city in the province, is for many people the most vibrant place in the country. The pace of life is more relaxed in the historic provincial capital, Québec City, and more easy-going still in the villages dotted along the St. Lawrence lowlands. The angler can't possibly be disappointed with Québec. For something a little less tame, you could continue north to Tadoussac, where whales can be seen near the mouth of the splendid Saguenay fjord - and if you're really prepared for the wilds, forge on through to Labrador, as inhospitable a zone as you'll find in the east and top of the list for anglers.

Across the mouth of the St Lawrence, the pastoral Gaspé peninsula - the easternmost part of Québec - borders New Brunswick, a mild-mannered introduction to the three Maritime Provinces, whose people have long been dependent on timber and the sea for their livelihood. Here, the tapering Bay of Fundy boasts amazing tides - rising and falling by nine metres, sometimes more - whilst the tiny fishing villages characteristic of the region are at their most beguiling near Halifax, the bustling capital of Nova Scotia. Perhaps even prettier, and certainly more austere, are the land and seascapes of Cape Breton Island, whose rugged topography anticipates that of the island of Newfoundland to the north. Newfoundland's isolation has spawned a distinctive culture that's at its most lively in the capital, St John's, where the local folk-music scene is known across the country. Some of the Atlantic seaboard's finest landscapes, particularly the flat-topped peaks and glacier-gouged lakes of Gros Morne National Park can be found here and Newfoundland is definitely a spot to put on the top of your list of angling destinations!
