What are the fishing regulations for Two Jack Lake?

Regulation zone: National Park water — Parks Canada regulations, not the Alberta Guide

Season: Most national park waters in Alberta are CLOSED to fishing in winter (the park fishing season is a spring-to-fall season and ice fishing is generally not permitted). Do not plan an ice trip on a park water without checking the current Parks Canada fishing summary for that park.

Limits: Park-specific catch and possession limits are in the Parks Canada fishing summary for the park — they differ from the Alberta provincial defaults and are not restated here.

Licence: A Parks Canada national park fishing licence is required (an Alberta provincial licence is not valid in a national park), plus a park pass.

Official regulations (Parks Canada park fishing summary (check the park) / Alberta Guide for surrounding waters). Always confirm against the current official guide before you fish. This summary may be out of date or incomplete: you are responsible for reading and following the current regulations, and Ice Fish Canada is not responsible for any violation or illegal harvest (poaching) that results from relying on it.
