Threemile Pond Fishing near Windsor, Maine

• Overview

  The Kennebec County end of Maine holds Threemile Pond. The sea is 23 miles distant. At some 1,157 acres it is far too large to cover on foot in a day. Some 9.4 miles of bank gives room to move when the wind turns. On our Kennebec County list it sits near the top for size. Windsor at 4 miles is the nearest place to stop. Sidney is 6.9 miles away, with Palermo at 7.1 miles. The boundary is near enough that local access rules are worth double-checking.

• Where to Fish on Threemile Pond

  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Kennebec County records list brown trout, Atlantic salmon, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass and black crappie among the fish reported. Several of these carry legal protection or closed seasons; the rulebook comes before the rod. On Threemile Pond a short move beats a long cast.

• Seasonal Patterns

  July runs about 69°F on average, January about 18°F. Seasons are distinct, and each one fishes differently. The freeze runs deep into the year, with break-up near early April. Break-up sits around early April on average, with the water closing again about mid December. Spring is short and heavy here; autumn is longer and steadier. The season on Threemile Pond rarely departs from it.

• Tackle & Baits

  Ownership and access are not documented in what we hold. Records list it as a natural water body rather than an impoundment. No car park, ramp or path is recorded within easy reach of the shore. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Local rules can differ across the county line, so check where you stand. Night access is frequently treated as a separate matter. Threecornered Pond at 2.3 miles is the sensible second choice. Signs at Threemile Pond carry more weight than any list.
