Bluegrass and Otter Pit lake maps now available online at IDNR

Hydro-graphic Lake Maps of Otter Pit and Bluegrass Pit are now available at IDNR on line web site.

I don't' have a direct link and had to do some searching to find them.

But they are not what I was expecting. They look like a topo map of my bath tub in my house. Typical of a strip pit lake with steep drops and little variation in the lake topography.

Here is a link that I found:

Those maps are horrible. They do not even have the max depth right.

Some of the other lakes they did the chart on are so small its a joke . Speaking of jokes stay away from Widgeon pit at Bluegrass , if you wouldnt sink in the mud you could walk across it . I dragged my boat down there and ran around with a finder - mostly its 3-4 deep . Trying to fish all the pits on the Bluegrass property .
