Location: Located 20 km. (12 mi.) northwest of the city of Kamloops. From North Kamloops (cross the Thompson River via bridge from Kamloops) take the Lac du Bois Road to Pass Lake. This is a good road for cars unless there is a lot of wet weather.

Resorts & Campsites: Located on Pass is a timbered 15 vehicle BCFS campsite with cartop boat launching. All services and accommodations can be found in the nearby city of Kamloops.

Fishing Report: Managed as a quality, fly-only lake, Pass provides patient fly fishermen with a fine Rainbow fishery that produces trout up to 6 lbs. and larger. Pass is considered a "moody" lake, but fishermen who have perfected Chironomid presentations, will be well rewarded with one of these Kamloops monsters. Best fished in spring and fall during heavy Chironomid hatches, Pass Lake should not be passed up while visiting the Kamloops area.
