It really depends on the temperature. Pike will start retreating to the deeps when the temperature is over 18C.

For most of southern Alberta, this tends to happen around mid-July. In Northern Saskatchewan, an intermediate line is fine for most of the year.

A full sink line would likely be more useful for July and August. Pike are simply much harder to target starting mid-July. But if I were wagering, I would say a full sink would be better for the dog-days of summer.
