Yes, I'd fished there once before a long time ago. As Gunner said, it's a stocked pond. So worms or pink maggots should also work well. There is a campground conveniently located at the entrance.

Midway Reservior (16-30-27-W4) gets stocked in May (~3,000) with 8" rainbows; possibly again in June with lesser numbers.

Midway is a nice little pond, Tested the water quality on it this summer. Saw some nice ones rising. It is also aerated.

sure, but right now we are still freezing at night. my dug outs are solid?? just trying to save you a drive. go south your way more lightly to find open water.

I'll save you the effort Midway is FROZEN like a brick. Went walking on it last week. Tiny gap near the windmill but not big enough to fish. I did tie into some 6" "dollar bill" fish late in the season but never pulled out anything over 11".
