Paulina Lake Fishing Report: Fishing has been good overall, with action for both trout and kokanee.

Best Time to Fish: Early morning and the final few hours of daylight continue to provide the most consistent fishing.

What’s Working: Balanced leeches, chironomids, buggers, and Callibaetis nymphs have all been producing fish. Ant and beetle patterns can also be effective when fish are rising.

Recommended Approach: Focus on subsurface presentations during the day, adjusting depth until you locate active fish. When surface activity develops, switch to terrestrials and target visible rises.
