Paulina Lake will open May 14th! The Resort is the only access for now and it will be limited with snow even in their parking lot. $10 launch fee last year….assume it won’t be much more in 2025?
I’ve had great early season success on black leeches. Sometimes stripped on sinking lines and sometimes on a balanced set up with an indicator. Not that we have much choice at Paulina, but the edges are where the fish will be and most likely in less than 8 or 10 feet of water for the moment.
