Using Snowmobiles for Ice Fishing

[Aldy731]

Good Morning Fellow Anglers!

Brand new to this forum, finally decided to sign up and get active on here! Looking for some help with snowmobile registration info.. I was wondering if you still need to register and possess valid insurance for a sled used solely for ice fishing on frozen lakes in Ontario. Zero trails, literally from the truck to the water (frozen water that is!) any help is greatly appreciated! the sled is a 1979 Polaris Galaxy 440...oldie goldie

you need inc for Shure unless on your own property but for what your talking about yes you need it

What fishchaser said aslong as its on public property it needs to be insured.

yes you NEED insurance on the sled to ice fish.

You need it becuz you are on the ice, BUT becuz you are on the ice it is VOID, figure that out.

Thanks for the info FishChaser67! contacted the ministry and they gave the official word that you do indeed need all the registration and insurance to be legal out there!
