Stocking records show that the following fish or strains were stocked here. A historical stocking does not by itself prove that a self-sustaining population remains today.
Twin Lakes means two neighboring Salisbury lakes, not one pond with interchangeable fishing rules. East Twin is Washining and West Twin is Washinee. Work out which lake you intend to fish before arranging a boat, because a public access listing for one does not establish access to the other.
Lake facts
Two separate lakes: Washining is East Twin; Washinee is West Twin
Lake sizes: East Twin about 569 acres; West Twin about 290 acres
Fish: East: trout, kokanee, bass and panfish; West: bass, pickerel and panfish
Which lake to fish
East Twin adds trout and kokanee to the bass and panfish choices. West Twin is a warmwater option for largemouth, pickerel, perch and crappie. For a simple start, fish a small jig around available cover for panfish or a weedless worm for bass. Don't assume West Twin has East Twin's coldwater fishery.
Getting on the right water
The DEEP East Twin access is a carry-in site on the western shore of East Twin. Check its site sketch before bringing a craft. If you want West Twin, arrange lawful access specifically for that lake rather than following an East Twin launch address.
Rules and clean equipment
Both lakes have special pickerel harvest rules. Check the separate entries before keeping fish. Clean boats and equipment carefully between waters; being next door to another lake doesn't make moving plants or water between them harmless.
