Mill Creek cuts through the Old Forge township zone — one of dozens of small named tributaries feeding the Moose River or the Fulton Chain, depending on where you catch it on a map. No public fisheries data on file, no formal access points cataloged, which usually means it's either a short feeder brook crossing under a town road or a stretch that runs through private forestland between the residential pockets. In a region dense with named ponds and the Fourth Lake shoreline pulling most of the attention, Mill Creek holds a spot on the map but not in the weekend rotation. If you're chasing brookies in Old Forge, you're starting with the Middle Branch of the Moose or working the upper Fulton Chain outlets.
