Q: Is it legal to spear white sucker? If not, are there any fish that you can spear?

A: White sucker and common carp may be taken by spear during daylight hours only. Please see the Ontario Recreational Fishing Regulations Summary (pg. 15, Non-Angling Methods of Capturing Fish) for details on seasons and limits.
