Laguna Parinacota

Anglers know Laguna Parinacota as one of the lesser-trafficked lakes of Puno, Peru. The standard playbook on a lake this size is to start shallow at first light, work outward toward deeper water as the sun climbs, and circle back to the shallows before dusk. Surface activity at Laguna Parinacota is a useful tell — boils, swirls, and rising baitfish point straight at the predator zone.
