Bringing the boat and camping at the park this weekend. This will be the first time fishing Balsam and hoping to have fun with the pike. Any help or hints would be much appreciated....thanks

Lots of pike in Balsam. This Spring has been cold so the water is still fairly cold for this time of year so don't rush your retrieve and stay close to the bottom with your baits/lures.

Good luck!
