You will find Hunts Millpond in Chesterfield County, South Carolina. The bank is 141 feet above sea level. This is a pocket water of some 19 acres, and every part of it is reachable from the bank. Start from Chesterfield, 6.8 miles down the road. Cheraw is 8.3 miles away, with North Hartsville at 18 miles. This one is safely inside the county line.
There is no recorded depth, so work from what you can see. Held water runs deepest at the wall and shallows back to the inflow. Look for where the old bank line still shows under the surface. Across Chesterfield County, recorded fish include bluegill, sawcheek darter, dollar sunfish, margined madtom and chain pickerel. Those are county-wide records, so not every one of them will be in this water. Hunts Millpond fishes better once you know its edges.
Averages here run 80°F at the top of summer and 42°F at the bottom of winter. Long warm spells define the calendar more than any cold. March through May is the strongest run, with autumn a second stretch. March through May is the strongest run, with October and November a second stretch. Hunts Millpond fishes to that pattern most years.
No access rule appears in what we hold. Mapping shows no built access close by; expect to walk in from wherever you can leave the car. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Where the road in crosses private land, ask first. Rules for boats are stricter than rules for the bank in many places. If the gate is shut, Teal Millpond at 0.9 miles is the nearest alternative.
