Preston/Malad area Ice off report
#5
Yes, the F&G were stocking the hayspur (t12) rainbows in Twin Lakes. I didn't put a tape on any fish but most of them looked like they were in the 10"-11" range.

If I remember correctly the F&G guy told me that that three of them would weigh 2lbs. So each of them are 2/3 of a pound. He also told me that they would grow 1"-1 1/2" every month. The F&G guy told me there are no plans to plant any more fish in Twin Lakes in 2006. That doesn't surprise me because the last few years it has only been planted in the spring with the about the same number of rainbows.

Black Crappie were discovered in Twin Lakes a couple years ago. This winter several crappie were put on the ice so it looks like the population may take hold. Twin Lakes can offer some decent fishing but it sure can be crowded during the summer. As you probably know it is a very popular place for jet skiers and water skiers. Considering how small of a body of water Twin Lakes is, it only takes a handfull of boats to put a constant chop on the water.
I guess I can't complain too much because there are other reservoirs in the area that resrict boating.
