Generally many lakes in Canada are that red iron color. Focus on flash mostly. Many daredevle lures are good. The last two years firetiger and chartreuse have produced some good fish for me.
Jerkbaits. Match the hatch, but try firetiger and clown for some variety. They work for big pike at home in heavily fished waters and up north.
Remember people think they are going for big pike, but even up north you may be lucky to get a 10# fish. I’ve had trips where I’ve caught 25 pounders and trips where my biggest was 8 pounds. Enjoy them all no matter how big.
Bring a variety of spoons. Johnson silver minnows, doctors, pixie’s, daredevils. #5 Mepps spinners, high quality spinner baits, large rappalas. Trophy hunting? use 6″ suicks. They suck to tune but can be deadly.
