Terms of use
By using Backlash Journal you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
For information only
Regulation summaries, season dates, limits and everything else on this site are simplified and provided for general information. They are not legal advice. The official Ontario sources always take precedence, and we do not guarantee that anything here is accurate, complete or current.
Spots, shops and events
Fishing spots, tackle shops, tournaments and news are compiled from public data and third-party feeds, partly automatically. Listings can be wrong or out of date: shops close or move, events change dates. Confirm with the shop or organiser before you travel.
Fishing and water activities carry risk
Ice fishing, boating, wading and shore fishing are dangerous. You take part at your own risk. Check ice, weather and water conditions yourself and wear a life jacket. To the extent the law allows, Backlash Journal and its editor are not liable for any loss, injury or fine arising from use of this site.
