• Where to Fish on Myricks Millpond

  No published figure covers depth, so learn it as you fish. A reservoir gives you a hard edge, a shelf, and not much else. Standing timber shows when the level drops, and fish sit against it. Fish reported in the area, according to open records, include largemouth bass and black crappie. Reported species tell you what lives around here, nothing more. The shape of Myricks Millpond decides where the fish sit.

• Tackle & Baits

  We have no record of the rules that apply on this bank. Nothing built is recorded close to the bank here. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. Where the road in crosses private land, ask first. Keep proof of licence with you rather than in the car. Lanier Lake, 5.2 miles away, makes the obvious fallback. Treat access at Myricks Millpond as something to verify.
