You do not, I repeat do not need a Passport to fish or cruise in Canadian waters of Lake Erie. You need a passport to step on shore in Canada but not to fish or boat on their waters. You must call in and answer their questions and you must write down the number they give you so if are your boarded you have proof you checked in. I spend a lot of time fishing over there and have never had an issue. Other than answering my cell phone over there and getting hit with international roaming charge. I turn my phone off now whenever I am crossing the border.
Thanks for the info. How difficult is it to do the call in, any problems getting through and how far in advance to you do it? And yes the international rates on cell calls suck! I get hit a lot while I'm even close to the border!
