Paulina Lake continues to shine. Go-to subsurface patterns include balanced leeches, chironomids, Red 2-Bit Hookers, Scuds, and jig minnow-style nymphs. Stripping Damsels, leeches, or Callibaetis nymphs across shoals and drop-offs gets fish to react immediately, especially early and late in the day. Calm periods bring good surface action—terrestrials like ants and beetles are in strong rotation.
