Bass

A spinnerbait, square-bill and Texas rig cover the most useful largemouth situations on Grovers Mill Pond.

Crappie, Perch and Sunfish

Slow vertical presentations around wood and suspended cover are dependable for Grovers Mill Pond crappie. Bluegill and other sunfish in Grovers Mill Pond take worms, crickets and tiny jigs along shade and vegetation. Keep a small jig, minnow or worm close to the bottom when perch are the target on Grovers Mill Pond.

Chain Pickerel

A spoon or compact swimbait worked beside weeds is a practical chain pickerel choice on Grovers Mill Pond.

A Simple Fishing Plan for Grovers Mill Pond

Let water color, wind and the first two bites decide whether to stay shallow or move toward the basin on Grovers Mill Pond. Then compare the incoming-water end of Grovers Mill Pond with the dam side and any point that reaches the old channel.

When to Fish Grovers Mill Pond

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