Fish species in Avis Millpond

Avis Millpond is a reservoir in Salem County, but a dependable acreage figure was not found. Dependable maximum-depth and storage-volume figures were not found for Avis Millpond, so those measurements should not be guessed.

What to Expect at Avis Millpond

Without trustworthy acreage or depth figures for Avis Millpond, the safest approach is to read the water in front of you instead of assuming it fishes like another lake with the same name.

Fish and Useful Baits at Avis Millpond

Fish reported from Avis Millpond include black crappie, bluegill, chain pickerel, channel catfish, largemouth bass, and yellow perch.

Bass

For Avis Millpond largemouth, use a shallow crankbait or swim jig to locate fish, then slow down with a jig or soft plastic.

Crappie, Perch and Sunfish

Crappie anglers on Avis Millpond should count the jig down beside brush until the holding depth becomes clear. A small float, light line and a piece of worm are enough for Avis Millpond bluegill around cover. Perch anglers on Avis Millpond should stay mobile until several bites come from the same depth.

Chain Pickerel

For Avis Millpond pickerel, cover weed edges with a flashy moving lure and use a short leader when bite-offs become common.

A Simple Fishing Plan for Avis Millpond

Begin with the first clear depth change, then test nearby wood, weeds or rock instead of making random casts on Avis Millpond. Then compare the incoming-water end of Avis Millpond with the dam side and any point that reaches the old channel.

When to Fish Avis Millpond

On Avis Millpond, spring fish often move onto protected banks before the open basin warms. Summer fishing on Avis Millpond is usually best at low light, beside shade or along the outside edge of healthy cover. During fall at Avis Millpond, revisit creek mouths and main points with baitfish-sized lures.
