Where to purchase fishing license bc

All anglers must have a fishing licence to fish tidal waters in BC. Children under the age of 16 are free but must still obtain a licence. When you purchase your licence online, you must print it and carry it while fishing so that you can immediately record your chinook, ling cod or halibut catch on the licence in ink. A salmon conservation stamp is also required if anglers intend to retain any salmon caught. This stamp is not required if anglers intend to release all salmon caught in non-tidal waters.

An angler wishing to retain any species of salmon must purchase and attach a conservation stamp to their licence. DFO provides all of the funds generated from stamp sales to the Pacific Salmon Foundation to support salmon restoration, stewardship and enhancement projects in British Columbia.

The Pacific Salmon Foundation is the largest non-profit, charitable organization dedicated to conserving and rebuilding Pacific salmon populations. The Foundation works in partnership with volunteer streamkeepers and community organizations to leverage the benefits of every dollar generated through the Salmon Conservation Stamp.
