Supported by the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters (OFAH) and Ontario Power Generation (OPG), the TackleShare Program gives new and young anglers the opportunity to go fishing at no cost by providing the equipment to get started. Participating anglers simply sign out a rod and reel, as well as an assortment of tackle, in the same way that they would borrow library material.

OFAH/OPG TackleShare Program

  • Equipment is available from the Port Carling branch for a one-week loan period
  • There is no cost to borrow TackleShare fishing equipment
  • You do not need a library card to borrow TackleShare equipment
  • You must fill in TackleShare form to borrow equipment
  • You are responsible for following Ontario fishing rules and restrictions
