On a first visit, I would make a short list of places to try with the first real effort focused on the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach and that is usually enough to tell you whether to stay shallow or start looking farther out.
Fish you may run into
The exact-water fish list for Paulson Flowage is not complete enough to lean on yet; that keeps the page honest, even if it means there is less to say right now, and and keep everything else in reserve until i need it.
How I would break it down
If I wanted to learn Paulson Flowage without overdoing it, I would fish what is in front of me instead of trying to make the lake match an old report, and I would read the current Wisconsin rules once before the trip so there are no surprises.
