An RI DEM-stocked trout pond — brook, brown and rainbow trout stocked several times a year, alongside a resident largemouth bass and panfish population.
Mill Pond covers about 8 acres in the South County region. Anglers here mostly fish for brook trout, brown trout, rainbow trout, largemouth bass; chain pickerel, yellow perch are also on record. The nearest other mapped waters on PiscaMaps are Mill Pond to Card Pond Brook and Card Ponds Pond.

Night fishing: No statewide night-fishing closure in Rhode Island on inland freshwater; Scituate Reservoir has its own posted access hours under the Providence Water permit program.
Boats: Most Rhode Island ponds take a car-top or small trailered boat via an RI DEM access point; Scituate Reservoir prohibits all boats to protect the drinking-water supply.
Bank & bivvy camping: Camp at Rhode Island state parks and management areas (Burlingame, Arcadia, George Washington); DEM access points themselves are day-use only.
Tackle: This water is on RI DEM's trout-stocking program; check the current DEM freshwater fishing abstract for any special limit or artificial-lures-only rule on this specific reach.
Anyone 15 or older needs a Rhode Island freshwater fishing licence — the resident annual is about $21, the non-resident annual about $36, with cheaper short-term non-resident options also sold. A separate saltwater licence (RISAL, free to register) is needed for tidal/coastal species. Residents 65 and older and anyone under 15 fish free. Buy from RI DEM at dem.ri.gov.
