I would bet there is in Mercer. Someone else might know. I never fished the lake after filling, but saw a dead carp when fishing the flats, so surely...But Assunpink Lake, used to fish that, further back in the creek system, I'm just not sure about carp there and would hope not.

I caught a 20" carp on a trout magnet, casting to the same spot i caught a trout the prior cast on the other side of 130 from the spillway ... I don't think there are any other barriers in the creek before it feeds into Mercer Lake, so i would assume they are in there too.
