Twin Lakes Fishing Guide, Lincoln County, Wisconsin

• Overview

  This water sits in Lincoln County, Wisconsin. Rolling bush runs right down to the water. The water covers some 97 acres, so pick a bank rather than trying to cover it all. The form is near circular, and the shelter is limited when it blows. It is among the larger waters listed here for Lincoln County. The closest town, Tomahawk, is 3.9 miles away. It is 103 miles to Green Bay, the nearest city. You are close to a county edge here; who manages the access can change within a short drive.

• Where to Fish on Twin Lakes

  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. Fish documented in Lincoln County include brown trout, rainbow trout, pumpkinseed, walleye and bluegill. Those are county-wide records, so not every one of them will be in this water. Twin Lakes gives up more to patience than to distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July near 67°F and January near 10°F on the long-run figures. Cold winters and warm summers give a wide working range. Winter fishing happens on the ice here, with open water back around mid April. Averages suggest open water from about mid April through to roughly late November. Fish feed hardest at the start and the close of the open season. Time your trip to Twin Lakes by conditions rather than dates.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access status is simply unknown for this water. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. No made access appears within a short radius, so plan to park on a verge and walk. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Rules for this water may differ from the county norm. Signs go up and come down, so check on the day. If the gate is shut, Beaver Lake at 1.6 miles is the nearest alternative. What applies at Twin Lakes may have changed since it was mapped.
