Fishing Report: Paradise Lake supports a very good small Rainbow fishery with trout averaging in the 1/2 lb. range. Ocassionally 4-5 lb. trout will end up at the end of your line. Due to its elevation Paradise is a consistent performer throughout the open water season. Fast action, with an 8 fish per day limit makes Paradise an excellent family lake. Trolling small lures, flatfish, and spinning gear, as well as fly fishing will all catch fish.

Some of these lakes are hike-ins and you can get directions to them by visiting the lodge at Paradise Lake.
