I usually go on Rt. 78 and get off exit 4 an the reservoir is not far from there.

You'll pass Sportsmans Roundesvous on your way up Rt. 31. I've never bought bait there, so I can't vouch for what they have.

For me, Merrill Creek comes alive as the sun sets. The trouble with that is MC has a curfew and you have be be off the water, in your car and off the property by a certain time. I don't know what time that is after labor day. maybe 6:30?


[EDIT]
I just looked it up and the boatramp opens at 6:30 am and closes at 7:15 pm.
The gates to the park close at 7:45 pm.
