A fishing guide and participant cast on a river in Nova Scotia in the Autumn.

Sport Fishing

Our saltwater coastlines and freshwater lakes and rivers offer a variety of sport fishing experiences for both avid anglers and beginners. Cast your line for speckled, rainbow and brown trout, smallmouth bass, white/yellow perch, chain pickerel, mackerel, and Atlantic salmon at various times throughout the year.

Or, venture off our coast in search of the Giant Bluefin Tuna, which attracts sportfishers from around the globe.
