Little Twin Lakes, Wisconsin: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Little Twin Lakes is a Langlade County water, Wisconsin side. The surroundings are mixed forest. With some 42 acres of water, there is room for a boat but no need of one. The bank runs about 1.0 miles all the way round, so one visit can cover most of it. Nashville lies 12 miles from the water. Green Bay sits 74 miles out, and it is the nearest city worth the name. One jurisdiction covers this water end to end.

• Where to Fish on Little Twin Lakes

  No figure exists for depth, so let the water show you. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. Open biodiversity records for Langlade County list brown trout, rainbow trout and largemouth bass. What holds for the county may not hold for this water. At Little Twin Lakes the first feature you find is worth twenty minutes.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate records put July near 66°F and January near 10°F. The year splits cleanly: hard water, then open water. Once it clears, about mid April, the fishing comes on quickly. The water is typically free of ice between mid April and late November. Look to early summer and the first cool weeks of autumn. Little Twin Lakes runs to its own calendar within the local pattern.

• Tackle & Baits

  Whether the bank is open is not something our records settle. It formed naturally, so levels move with rainfall rather than with a gate. There is a pier recorded roughly half a mile away. Mapping records toilets within half a mile. Take the rules with you rather than trusting memory. A polite question at the farm gate opens more banks than anything else. Should this one be busy, Spring Lake is 0.9 miles off. Check the position on Little Twin Lakes before loading the car.
