Little Stone Lake Outpost

Guests rate Twin Lakes Outfitters highly. Most reviews give 5 stars and the rest give 4. Reviewers describe the outfitters, Chad and Dawn, as friendly and helpful, and several say they would go back or recommend the company. The reviews cover several outposts, including Ankcorn, Abamasagi (Aba/Abby), Kag, Sim, Jessiman, Poverty and Kayedon. One family has returned repeatedly since the son's first trip at age 10, and another guest called the adventure "worth the trip."

Guests praise the outfitters' service and the quality of the cabins, boats and motors. One first-time fly-in guest was impressed that Chad kept a tire and rim for him and had a replacement mounted by the time he returned from the lake. Others mention that the drive, flights and camp all went smoothly, and one guest said Chad offered to take them out a day early when they arrived early. The float plane flight was a highlight for one reviewer. For fishing, Abamasagi is called a "walleye factory" where one group's catch numbers rose each year. Ankcorn produced non-stop northern pike, mostly 18"-24" with a few in the mid-30" range, and one day of walleye doubles on white jigs after a storm.

Some reviewers noted conditions to be aware of. Walleye fishing on Ankcorn was hit and miss, and that reviewer suggested a bigger lake next time. On Poverty Lake, a first-time group found the shallow water made it hard to locate structure, caught fewer and smaller walleye than hoped, and did not like the taste of the fish. At Abamasagi, a rapid mid-summer warm-up and a mayfly hatch changed the fishing from June. The drive to the base may include dirt logging roads, so one guest advises asking Chad for the smoother alternate route. The operation suits first-time fly-in anglers, father-son and family trips, and groups of friends who want walleye numbers at Abamasagi or steady pike action on a smaller lake. Anglers hoping for large trophy fish are not specifically supported by these reviews.
