Quebec license for kids?

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Quebec license for kids?

Post by BrianM »

Good morning everyone, I have a question that I'm having trouble getting answers for. I'm heading out camping this weekend with my 11 year old son. I know he doesnt need a lisence to fish in Ontaio but we will also be fishing in Quebec teritory. Do I need to buy a Quebec license for him as well as for myself?

From the info on the following link, I would say your child can fish under your licence.

http://www.mrnfp.gouv.qc.ca/english/pub ... icence.asp

The question "Do the preceding measures also apply to non-residents?" is answered with "Yes. They apply to both residents and non-residents." The question about a child fishing under your licence is a "preceding measure".

Beachburger,
I owe you a beer !.
I have been buying my son a Quebec license the past few years as he is 21 so I thought over 18 years old he needs one.
But I just read in the regulations that you posted, that as a student he is good until age 24 (I hope he graduates before then!!!) under my license.
Thanks,
Dave

Also just make sure that your son carries a valid student card while fishing as stipulated in the QC regs.

Also remember that any fish he may catch and keep is part of your limit.
