Did you know the freshwater lakes and rivers of Ontario’s Southwest offer some of Ontario’s best fishing? This region is home to some of the most renowned fisheries in North America. This includes world-class musky and smallmouth bass fishing on Lake St. Clair, the famous abundance of walleye, yellow perch, and steelhead (rainbow trout) that can all be found on Lake Erie. Additionally, Lake Huron is also a walleye, chinook salmon, and pink salmon hotspot. These are just a sample of the fishing opportunities found here but there's many more fish species and adventures waiting for you!
