Things to Remember

  • If you choose to bring your own boat and motor, please ensure that it is free of any harmful species (e.g., Zebra Mussels, all vegetation, VHS, etc.).
  • Drain all bilge water, livewells and bait buckets.  Rinse hull, live wells and bait buckets with bleach solution.
  • It is illegal to transport live bait from the U.S. into Canada.
  • It is illegal for a non-resident to possess any type of bait fish trap.
  • We do not accept credit cards.  Payment by cash or traveller's cheques.  Personal cheques are accepted for deposit purposes only.
  • Handguns are illegal in Canada.  Long firearms require registration at the border before crossing.
