Tie a fly and cast for wild Atlantic salmon on the Margaree River or reel in that perfect rainbow trout on the Bras d’Or Lake. Find a moment for yourself to explore one of the many notable fishing holes in the Cape Breton Highlands National Park. With this much coastline, our Island is the perfect place to hook your first catch or master the sport.
To fish for any species of fish (except salmon) in fresh water in Nova Scotia, you need to have a General Fishing Licence. You also need to follow provincial and federal fishing rules, including seasons, gear and bag limits.
