West Twin is a clear, all sports lake with superb fishing. Troll or still fish for largemouth and smallmouth bass, walleye, northern pike and the occasional tiger muskie, or catch your limit of yellow perch, bluegill and pumpkinseed sunfish. West Twin has a sand and gravel bottom around its shoreline so the swimming is excellent, and the lake is wide open and free of obstructions for first-rate skiing. Fine winter tip-up ice fishing. Keep one eye to the sky and watch for the resident bald eagles. A public boat launch with good parking is just west of Lewiston on County Road 612.

East Twin may be West Twin’s little sister, but not when it comes to walleyes. The DNR has been stocking walleyes for years and the fishing is hard to beat. There are also plentiful largemouth and smallmouth bass, bluegills and yellow perch. East Twin is an all sports lake. Park your boat at the sandbar and swim, or watch the water skiers while you enjoy lunch or dinner at the Lewiston Lodge. There is a paved, public boat launch is in Lewiston at the public beach.

Just north of Garland Golf Course, the two arms of Tee Lake offer the excitement of an all sports lake and the serenity of a no-wake lake. This is a great walleye lake and very deep with areas in excess of 70 feet. Both jet skies and canoes are regularly used on this excellent lake.

Rustic Avery Lake is a beautiful place to fish. Much of its shoreline is wild, so the scenery and water birds (ducks, loons and eagles) are superb. Catch bass, northern pike and panfish. Two excellent state forest campgrounds and a boat launch with lots of parking.
Located in both Montmorency and Otsego counties. A chain of seven lakes, they are rustic with uncluttered shorelines and provide a home for ducks and loons. It is not at all uncommon to see deer at the water’s edge. These lakes provide excellent fishing for bass, northern pike and pan fish and are set in the midst of large tracts of heavily wooded land. No public access.
