• Where to Fish on Conines Millpond

County-wide records name bluegill, largemouth bass, pumpkinseed and yellow perch. The list covers the county rather than this water alone, so treat it as a guide. Conines Millpond gives up more to patience than to distance.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing in our records says who may fish here. A car park sits roughly half a mile away. Toilets show in mapping about half a mile away. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Where access is informal, keep it that way by behaving. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. The nearest alternative is Imlaystown Lake, 3.9 miles out. For Conines Millpond, the notice at the access point is the final word.
