Better check and see if they have filled it back up yet. They draw in down to flood for duck season. Have caught many nice red ear from mermet.
I love those tasty bluegill! I'm planning a trip to Mermat lake in Southern Illinois in the next couple of weeks. They have an 8 inch creel limit on bluegill in that lake. The biggest I caught out of there went a little over 10 inches, but it's hard to throw back a 7 1/2 inch bluegill.
Fish on!:D

They're gonna start pumping water back in towards the middle of the month. The lake is still recovering from the fish kill that happened a year or so ago, but I think the creel limit will help w/ the quality of fish.
