The Sioux Lookout Master Angler Program is dedicated to recognizing the accomplishments of a single angler, who in the given year participated in the Master Angler Release Awards Program, entering as many releases possible in each species division. Congratulations sportsmen! We all have a responsibility to our natural resources. Your participation in the Master Angler Release Awards Program over the last 14 years takes that responsibility to the next level – illustrating your understanding of the importance and expressing your true dedication to preserving the endless angling opportunities that our great Canadian wilderness has to offer!

We are a non-profit, conservation based Catch and Live Release Program, operated by a group of volunteers. As members of various Fisheries Advisory Committees, our goal is to ensure that the Sioux Lookout District continues to provide excellent angling experiences in both quality and quantity for years to come while sustaining our fish resources. We are proud to have the support of area businesses, the Sioux Lookout Hudson Tourism Association and the local Ministry of Natural Resources who have provided funding and support to ensure that this program remains successful. Visitors to the Sioux Lookout area – whether it is from neighbouring communities or from our friends south of the border, you come to experience the amazing angling opportunities that will provide memories to last a lifetime!

Program Rules...

Any angler who catches and releases a fish of qualifying length can register the fish. You can register your catch at the Sioux Lookout Travel Information Centre or any participating business or lodge. You can also download the registration form HERE and mail it to the address on the form together with your cheque or money order for $7.00.

Upon registration, you will receive a Crest Award and at the end of the program year, a Certificate of Recognition will be mailed to you.
