Paulina Lake is also fishing really well and ought to be a top lake choice over the next few weeks or longer, especially with Beetles and Ants, Hoppers, Chubby’s, Red Tarantula and a morning session of Callibaetis hatches near Little Crater mostly.
Chironomids, Balanced Leeches, Red 2 Bit Hooker, Scuds, Balanced or Jig Minnow under the indicator and leeches and callibaetis nymphs stripped on various sinking lines.
I heard form my good friend Tim that he and Rich did the shoreline patrol with beetles with good success, but what they finally tried after reading about it on the report and taking Phil Rowley’s seminar earlier this Summer was the Deep Dangle. Rich had a Type 5 and made that work (it just takes longer to Vertical than a Type 7 or 8) and caught a great big rainbow on a leech.
