Teal Millpond Fishing near Chesterfield, South Carolina

• Overview

  Teal Millpond is one of the Chesterfield County listings for South Carolina. Elevation runs to 115 feet. Roughly 1.6 miles of bank means you can walk to a fresh area when one goes quiet. Size puts it in the front rank of our Chesterfield County list. Chesterfield at 6.5 miles is the nearest place to stop. After that come Cheraw at 7.6 miles and Bennettsville at 19 miles. The nearest boundary is well away, so one set of rules covers the water.

• Where to Fish on Teal Millpond

  Depth remains unrecorded, so treat the first session as a survey. Look for where the old bank line still shows under the surface. Levels move with the draw rather than the rain on water like this. Fish documented in Chesterfield County include bluegill, sawcheek darter and dollar sunfish. Species recorded across the county may be limited to a few waters. Work Teal Millpond in sections rather than trying to cover it.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Seasonal averages run from 42°F in January up to 80°F in July. Winter is a mild inconvenience here, nothing more. Heat pushes fish deep from June onwards, so start early. Autumn steadies things again once the heat lets go. That is the shape of the year on Teal Millpond. Long daylight spreads the feeding across more hours.

• Tackle & Baits

  The rules here are undocumented as far as public sources go. No car park, ramp or path is recorded within easy reach of the shore. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Look for a notice board at the entrance. Barbless rules turn up on managed water more often than not. Failing this one, try Hunts Millpond, 0.9 miles away. Check the position at Teal Millpond before loading the car.
