Paulina Lake is open and I am told the docks are in. There is a lot of snow around, so parking is still an issue at this time. I have no report on how the fishing is. Fish shallow zones from 2 to 10 feet deep. Leeches and scuds are good early season picks. Fish under an indicator with a red chironomid in 8 to 15 feet. Last spring at about this time there were a lot of #18-20 dark olive pupas in throat pump samples and it lasted for about 3 weeks.
