Ontario Fishing Licences

We strongly suggest that you purchase your Ontario Fishing Licences as soon as possible upon crossing the border into Ontario/Canada. This will save time and avoid any delays upon your arrival at the air base and allow you to depart as soon as your flight is ready.

For more information about obtaining a Ontario Fishing License please visit the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources website.

What To Bring

Be sure to bring essentials, but it is important to organize amongst your group so you keep within the aircraft weight limit for your group size. For example the total weight limit for a group of 4 is 1200 lbs incuding body weight, baggage and supplies.

If you exceed this weight limit, an extra flight will be required, which will add to your costs.
