"Registration is optional for all pleasure craft, regardless of tonnage and length, as per the Canada Shipping Act, 2001." As per Transport Canada. Pleasure craft must be licensed, commercial craft must be registered. You can register your pleasure craft if you want to (i.e. if you want to use it as collateral for mortgage) Hope that helps!

Thanks for the great report. So nice to see a family enjoying fishing together! Looks like your little guy is going to be a lifer for sure. Just love to see the kids pulling in monsters that so far I can only dream of!

Wow, great stuff Mike! Looks like some great camping and killer bass fishery!! Still looking for my honey hole. Have lots of fun and consistent fishing at the small lake where we cottage near Huntsville but no beasts like those! Gives us something to aim for! lol

Hi folks! My name is Mike and I'm a newbie in OFC. I live in Hamilton and love to fish. Not very experienced at it but I try. My wife and I are most often bass fishing as we took a charter a couple of years ago and have at least some idea what we're doing. Would love to expand our repertoire and catch the big ones! Who wouldn't?? Most of what I ever catch is with the old worm and bobber rig but I'm learning to use my other tackle to some effect. Finally caught a decent catfish out of Hamilton harbor the other day on a spoon but my phone died before I could take a pic. I work nights at a men's shelter downtown and am free to go fish around 7am most days. If any more experienced shore fishermen would like to hook up and share some tricks that would be awesome. Otherwise I'm enjoying following the forum's here and finding some great advice. Would love to find some fishing fellowship in the area!! Thanks all, look forward to finding some new fishing friends!!
