Fishing at Millecoquins Pond, Luce County, Michigan

• Overview

  You will find Millecoquins Pond in Luce County, Michigan. Land around it is lake country bush. At 7 acres it is the sort of place you fish for an evening rather than a day. On size it sits at the modest end of our Luce County list. Newberry sits 8.2 miles from the bank. The big place round here is Green Bay, 170 miles distant. A county line runs close by, so local bylaws can differ within a short drive.

• Where to Fish on Millecoquins Pond

  Depth is unmeasured here, so let the shoreline guide you. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Open biodiversity records for Luce County list yellow perch, white sucker, walleye and pink salmon. Records at county level tell you what is around, not what is stocked here. On Millecoquins Pond a short move beats a long cast.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July near 65°F and January near 16°F on the long-run figures. A solid cap is the normal state through winter. The lid usually goes in mid April, which opens the strongest weeks of the year. Ice clears near mid April and comes back about early December in a typical year. Fish feed hardest at the start and the close of the open season. Keep it in mind when planning a trip to Millecoquins Pond.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access is not recorded for this water. Launch at Upper Millecoquin River Boat Launch, half a mile from the water. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Check whether a boat is allowed before you tow one. Night access is frequently treated as a separate matter. Devine Lake at 2.5 miles is the sensible second choice. Confirm access to Millecoquins Pond locally before you travel.
