TERRACE BAY— The 2022 Ontario Ice Fishing Challenge begins on Tuesday.

The basics of the tournament requires participants register with their postal code online at AnglersAtlas.com or through the MyCatch app, pay $20 and go fishing! Anytime an angler lands a fish, they use the App to take a photo of their catch next to a measuring device and results are then posted to a local and provincial leaderboard. If anglers are out of service when fishing, the App will store photos until anglers are back on the grid.

The tournament runs the entire month of February, all species are eligible, and participants can fish anywhere in Ontario.

The Township has indicated that the tournament has both a local and provincial component so that anyone registering with a 2W0 postal code is in the Terrace Bay and Ontario Prize Pool. It’s important to note that anyone registering with a different postal code is automatically in the Provincial Prize Pool however there may not be a local aspect associated with their township.

The Municipality hopes to have a lot of residents participate in the 2022 ON Ice Fishing Challenge and wish them the best of luck on the ice. As a backdrop to this announcement the Township of Terrace Bat and its Council are focused on providing safe, fun, inclusive recreation programming to everyone in the community.

City officials would like to thank the local businesses and groups who donated prizes.

Check out the sponsor prize list. If you don’t see your organization listed and would like to donate a prize or in-kind service of any value, the township asks that you please email [email protected]
