I would rather fish a handful of good-looking spots well and I would make the opening plan about shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank before I let one slow spot convince me the whole lake is dead.

The fishing side of the page

The fish tied to this exact Merton Millpond 26 record include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; which is enough for me to plan around weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and avoid hauling gear for every fish in Wisconsin.

A laid-back first trip

If I wanted the first trip to Merton Millpond 26 to actually teach me something, I would fish a few sensible areas, remember where the life is, and stop forcing a pattern that is not there, then the only homework left is checking the current Wisconsin season, bag, and size rules.
