If anyone has fished Meyer dam lately i would like to know how they did. Are the locks closed yet so there is curent? Last year i always did well on the catfish there but only when there was curent. This year the dam has been wide open and free flowing for quite sometime. If the dam is closed that would be great to know so i dont have to drive up there and check.

Ok everyone i sacrificed 10 dollors in gas and went and checked myself this mourning. The dam is closed, yeehaw!
used To Go Camping In A Big Ol Tent Up At Meyer,il Back In The Early70's. Is That Dike Still There. It's Been So Long Since I've Been Up In That Area Don't Think I Could Find My Way Up To Meyer. Used To Catch Some Of The Pretty Est Golden Colored Carp From That Dike. That Was Way Before I Got In To Catfishing. I Guess Cause Of The Sandy Bottom Is Why They Were So Clean Looking.could Tell You A Scary Store About The Miss ,meyer And The Flood Of 73. But That Another Time. Good Luck Up There.
