At Paulina on Monday I had Chris and Chase in the boat and after the last few weeks of on and off fishing it was wonderful to see a lot of good dry fly action all day long, from Callibaetis to beetles, ants and grasshoppers. Tuesday, with high hopes Dan and his grandson joined me and while the morning rise was good, soon the wind stopped that action and overall we had a slower day.

I think we need to pass this heat wave and get to some September days where cooler weather is more common.

I did see fish starting to return to some of the deeper weed beds on the middle north area of the lake, and usually that means good chironomid fishing coming up.
