• Where to Fish on Casco Millpond

  The records we hold are silent on depth, so plan to find it yourself. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. Across Kewaunee County, recorded fish include brown trout, rainbow trout, Coho salmon, Chinook salmon and alewife. Several of these carry legal protection or closed seasons; the rulebook comes before the rod. On Casco Millpond a short move beats a long cast.

• Seasonal Patterns

  July runs about 69°F on average, January about 17°F. Winter puts a hard lid on this one. Break-up comes around early April, and the run that follows is short and strong. Ice usually gives way near early April, and forms again about early December. Right after break-up, and again as the nights sharpen, is when to go. Plan around that when you fish Casco Millpond.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access is not recorded for this water. Expect a half a mile walk in from where the car goes. Light line and small metal for the trout; a fly rod earns its place on calm evenings. Some banks are open only from a marked point. Night access is frequently treated as a separate matter. Failing this one, try West Alaska Lake, 5.3 miles away.
