Manitoba Angling Licence Increased for Residents and Nonresidents
The Manitoba government set resident angling licences at 2.25 for ages 16 and up, with nonresidents at 6.50. The move aligns with broader fish management, stock, and research programs to boost angling across lakes and streams. Residents under 16 fish without a licence. nonresidents under 16 must be with a licensed adult and follow accompanying limits. The plan includes enhanced stocking of pike, perch, pickerel, bass, muskellunge, trout, and Kokanee, expanding to more lakes hit by winter kill.
