HotShot Deep Runners with Barbless VMC Treble Hooks are a top choice for Quetico smallmouth action and northern pike. Plug the rocky shorelines and over reefs with these deep runner crankbaits and you'll see what for! Smallies will whack these 4" lures like crazy, northerns can't resist them! In mid to late summer, cast these alongside weed beds and retrieve at varried speeds. They're floater/divers so if you snag the bottom, just give it total slack, wait a few seconds and then slowly continue with the retrieve. They come equipped with round-bend VMC barbless hooks so a major hookset is less important and a tight line on the retrieve will bring the big one to the side of your canoe!

Fire Perch: June, July, August for smallmouth bass and northern pike. Weedbed emphasis here. Lake Craw: Must-have-in-tackle-box color for June, July, August and September
