Camped out at Twin lakes near Winfield for August Long & did a wee bit of fishing. I didn't bring my canoe, which was ok case the weather was poor - rain & lot of wind. I'd like to say the fishing was good, but it wasn't for me. I caught zip. The two docks were pretty crowded all day & most of the nights (one at the boat launch & the scuba dock) with at least 4 people on at all times. Saw 2 youger kids hook up with pike, though too small to keep. Nobody was catching more than one at a time. If I could make recommendations about this lake it would be to boat across the lake to the other side & fish the drop off - too much pressure on the camp side, or get some live bait into the water. Regular spoons & whatnot did not seem to be fooling the pike in these waters. According to the scuba club members there are some bigs ones in here, people just have a hard time catching them. I liked the camp ground - just way too busy for a long weekend, noise, noise, noise, well past 11 pm every night. If you want a quiet site, head left on the way into the camp. If you want real nice sites overlooking the lake, check out #32 & #39 - they're bootyfull! I got stuck in a site about the size of a postage stamp though :P! Regulars say it's quiet most regular weekends. PS - FREE FIRE WOOD! That's about it for now...
