Headed up to the boundary waters in late May 2024. Looking to hookup on some smallies, pike and walleye.

What size Kalin's Lunker grub /  jig head would be best?

 

Went a couple years ago and absolutely killed the pike on the 4" or 5" , cant remember which I used! Also my jig heads were 1/6oz ned rig heads. Would y'all recommend upsizing to 1/4oz? Or downsizing to 1/8oz?

 

Any precise/specific input would be appreciated. Know this is somewhat finesse fishing and smallmouth are finnicky, advice and brands of specific jig heads would be appreciated! 

 

 

 

CORRECTION: Pike AND smallies we slayed with the 4" or 5"

    I would take a few weight sizes if you can.  Maybe 1/8 up to 3/8 oz. You can never know exactly what you might need until you get there. Good luck!
