The Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry hasn't altered fishing and hunting in the province, but access to many areas used by anglers and hunters has been restricted.
In order to help anglers and hunters across Ontario stay up-to-date on any closures or restrictions that may impact spring activities, the OFAH has launched a webpage that will serve as the home for this information.
The site lists closures and restrictions for conservation authorities, county forests, trails, national wildlife areas, and boat launches, among other things as we receive information. We will be updating this list on a daily basis to reflect any new additions or changes.
In order for this list to be as comprehensive as possible, we're asking for your help. If you know of any closures/restrictions not included on this page, please email the details with a link to the source to fwintern@ofah.org.
Thank you for your help. This list will change daily, so please check back often
We hope that everyone is staying safe and healthy in these unprecedented and challenging times. We also know that many of you have questions related to the impact this situation may have on your spring outdoors pursuits. With all of the rumours and speculation, the OFAH is pushing for answers from the government.
At this point, the MNRF has not made any decisions to restrict, delay or cancel provincial fishing and hunting seasons or restrict access to Crown land.
However, some municipalities and Conservation Authorities have already restricted access to their lands, and many retailers that usually offer fishing and hunting licences are no longer open to the public.
Below we will be updating a list of closures across the process in an attempt to keep you informed. This list will change daily, so please check back often.
