Took the canoe across Fall Lake from Entry #24 to the BWCA and portaged to Newton Lake. Pike were very aggressive all over Newton lake. However, the better fish came in areas with a shadeline at the deep point of any submerged greenery. Topwater snagged the most pike (and was the most fun). However, having the bladed treble on the popper seemed to be the ticket to attract the occasional smallie. Plopper worked great in the early AM / late PM around our campsite and even caught some on a frog. They would also smash a Zman Mini Max worked along weedlines and around isolated rock piles. Fairly small pike for the most part, so 15lb fluoro worked great, but made sure to re-tie often. The Okuma Hakai worked great and cast everything from a plopper to a small popper without issue.
