Bentley
Pond is an 86 acre
impoundment on the
Plover River ten miles northeast of Stevens Point. The dam was built
to provide power to a woodworking mill. The pond has a maximum depth
of ten feet, and the bottom is covered with a heavy layer of silt.
The estimated volume of the pond is 133 acre-feet. The Plover River
is navigable above and below the dam, and the pond is very scenic;
however, public access to the pond is limited to County Hwy Y.
Northern pike and panfish make up much of the fishery.
