You will go through several flies if the pike are hitting, so bring plenty. And make sure you use a steel leader when going for those toothy critters, they will make short work of fluro or mono leaders. We are heading to Lake Lac La Croix this year instead of Quetico (for a change). I too am going to be the only one packing the fly rod. Can't wait! Take care!
