How do I get to Pascoe's Baril Bay?

From Duluth, Minnesota, take Hwy #61 north to Pigeon River, Ontario 162 miles where you will clear Canadian Customs. Continue on Hwy #61, 37 miles to Hwy #130. Turn left on #17 and drive 78 miles to the Black Spruce Motel and the Lac des Mille Lacs Road. This is seven miles east of Upsala, Ontario. Turn left and follow the signs to Pine Point Resort. This distance is 20 miles over a well-maintained gravel road. The scenic drive from Duluth should take approximately six hours.

what if I travel on Sunday or a Canadian holiday?

Beware of traveling on Sundays and Holidays as most Canadian stores will be closed. Thunder Bay has many motels and restaurants as well as a 24-hour grocery store. 

​

what are some lodging options before or after our fishing trip?

There are several options for lodging in or near Thunder Bay:

 

Duluth (MN) or Superior (WI), both about 5.5 hours from the resort, is also a good resting point:

​

where do i park my car?

Upon arrival to Pine Point Resort, check in at their office for direction on where to park your car. They will charge a fee to park and will collect from you directly. Parking and fees are not associated with Pascoe's at Baril Bay.

​

How will I get to camp once i park my car? 

                                                             We will pick you and your party up at Pine Point at our prearranged time in our-deep water                                                                  boat. When you arrive in Thunder Bay or Kakabeka Falls, please call or text the camp at 218-                                                                428-7520 to confirm your pick up time. It is very important to do this. Coordination of your                                                                transportation to camp is a very important element on our end. We cannot be held                                                                                  responsible to delays due to inclement weather.

Where should we purchase our fishing licenses? 

The easiest and most efficient way is online, before you come.  Purchase your licence online here. We are located in Zone 6. While there are licensing facilities in both Kakabeka Falls and Thunder Bay, the office hours and wait times may not be ideal for your travel plans. The Canadian Fishing Regulation supplies an annual guide to the rules and regulations for recreational fishing in Ontario. It contains information about recreational fishing licences, open seasons and catch limits, as well as up-to-date fishing regulations for each fishing zone. You can read about the regulations and purchasing here.

​

what should we bring for food?

All groups are required to supply their own food, including paper products. You can purchase food upon entering Canada in Thunder Bay, or in the United States in Duluth or Two Harbors. Be sure to bring coolers. There is no duty on food supplies going into Canada, but there are a few restrictions on food types and quantities.  You can read about these restrictions here.

​

what additional supplies should we plan to bring?

Bring all of your own personal clothing, toiletries, and fishing equipment, including live bait. Be certain to pack a sleeping bag and twin bed sheets for each person (except for Cabin #3 that has two double beds), pillow cases, and towels (bath, hand, dish). We supply pillows, blankets, life jackets, seat cushions, minnow buckets, landing nets, and propane grills. Pack all your food supplies and personal items in boxes or suitcases, so nothing is loose for the boat ride into camp. Zip-lock bags for lunches and for packing  your take-home fish is also a good idea. Lastly, do not forget toiletries, sunscreen, insect repellent, first-aid kit, flashlight, sunglasses, compass, camera, playing cards and other things to entertain yourselves in the evening hours.

​

How can I communicate with camp?

If you have questions or changes with your reservation, or in case of emergency call camp at 218-428-7520.

​

Does my cell phone work at the camp and surrounding areas?

We have found most cell phone providers have moderate reception, depending on the weather. Be sure to contact your provider before your trip to find out about internet roaming fees as we do not have WiFi service on site. We do have a cell phone booster for emergencies.

​

How can we pay the balance of our trip?

Deposits made in advance of your trip can be mailed to our business office in Superior, Wisconsin and can be made by cash, check, or money order in US funds. Final payments made at the camp must be made in cash, check, or money order in US funds. NO CREDIT CARDS are accepted.
