Popular fishing camp formats

  • Day camps – local programs may offer daily instruction and supervised fishing time
  • Overnight camps – programs based near lakes or rivers with guided fishing
  • Wilderness camps – fishing combined with camping, canoeing, and outdoor skills

Fishing skills and species

Salmon and halibut fishing are highly popular fishing activities taught at seashore fishing camps. Rainbow Trout, Arctic Grayling, Dolly Varden, Bull Trout, and Rocky Mountain Whitefish are a delight to catch on dry flies. Both freshwater (trout fishing and steelhead fishing) and saltwater (salmon fishing and halibut fishing) are equally in demand. Many summer fishing camps also teach basic gear setup, knots, casting, and fish handling.

Seasonal fishing opportunities

Ice fishing is another popular sport at fish camps. Many holiday camps throughout Ontario offer ice fishing if cold weather permits. Some fishing camps also run spring or fall sessions when conditions are right, in addition to summer fishing camps.

In addition, blue crab fishing is also getting to be a rage. In recent times, floating fishing camps are preferred by many anglers. Some camps are held in areas where very few anglers have been before, adding to the excitement and thrill of the camping experience. Fishing camps are usually conducted when fish are available in plenty.

Learn more from the kids' fishing camps listed above. If you are searching for fishing camps by location, season, or skill level, compare listings to find the best fit.

Fishing camps: frequently asked questions

What should families ask about safety and supervision at fishing summer camps?

Ask how campers are supervised near water, what life-jacket rules are in place, and whether staff have first aid training. If boats are used, confirm ratios, safety briefings, and how weather changes are handled.

Do summer fishing camps provide gear, or should you bring your own?

Many summer fishing camps provide shared gear for instruction, while others recommend bringing a rod, tackle, and appropriate clothing. Before you pack, confirm what is included, what is optional, and whether a fishing licence is needed for the camp’s activities.

Are there overnight options, or are most fishing camps day programs?

Both exist. Some fishing camps are day-based, while others are part of broader outdoor or wilderness programs that include multi-day stays. If you’re comparing fishing camps, ask how much time is spent specifically on fishing instruction versus other activities.
