We are anxious to make this site as user friendly as possible. Today an operational reconstruction of the mill is present and is an attraction of historical interest. Maximum depth is 8 ft, and the average is 4 ft. The lower two thirds of Wye Mills Lake consists of outstanding fish habitat. There are many downed trees and undercut roots on the shorelines.
Aquatic vegetation is widespread during the summer months.
Additionally, several fish attractors have been placed along the concrete dam breast to provide fishing opportunities from shore. Good numbers and sizes of bass and bluegills are present. Bass have abundant forage from which to feed and can be finicky as a result. Fishermen stand a good chance, however, to catch a trophy from this lake. Restrictions - No gas motors more than 10 horsepower permitted on lake.
