    Guys,

    Taking my first trip to Ontario in May/June and have little to no information on what I need to be prepared for. I’ve read that I’ll need an outdoors card and a license.

    Is Ontario barbless hooks? I believe it’s in zone 5 of the map that I saw, which is also highlighted as part of the boundary waters but no clue what that means or if that means anything.

    Any pointers or information would be appreciated for when I take my first venture over the northern border.

    If you are headed to Clearwater west Lodge you have a unique experience ahead. The ministry website has specific information on the particular body of water you will be fishing. Most are not catch and release and zone 5 covers Clearwater. I’ve fished this area 13 yrs and its a hidden gem. Sorry, white otter lake is closed until 6/14/17. But plenty of other lakes to fish.

    Thanks Mark, In my deep dive of the ministry website I can’t find to much on Clearwater West. Maybe I’m looking in the wrong place?

    Is it barbless hooks up there?

    Clearwater Lake not part of the Quetico Park..so its “not a barbless hook” lake.
