The “Provincial Possession Limits” for the various species of fish found in Ontario are sometimes different and more generous than the individual zone limits.

For walleye and sauger or any combination of the two species, the provincial possession limit is six. In your example, if you caught two fish in Zone 9 (zone limit = 2, no size restrictions) and put them in the freezer and then went out fishing in Zone 6, you would be allowed to catch and retain 4 walleye or sauger (zone limit = 4, only one over 46cm).

You are allowed to have fish from multiple fisheries management zones. You cannot exceed the individual zone limit for a species of fish.

The following are the provincial possession limits.

1. Walleye or Sauger or any combination 6

2. Largemouth bass or Smallmouth bass or any combination 6

3. Northern pike 6

4. Muskellunge 1

5. Brook trout 5

6. Brown trout 5

7. Rainbow trout 5

8. Lake trout 3

9. Splake 5

10. Pacific salmon 5

11. Atlantic salmon 1

12. Lake whitefish 25

13. Lake sturgeon 1

14. Channel catfish 12

15. Aurora trout 1
