When I lived there, Rend Lake was stocked with Northern Pike. I guess there are still some unless they were removed. Pike tended to eat everything and new large mouth bass hatchlings had a very short life expectancy.

As an aside, my father-in-law at the time, was the chief land buyer for the Army Corps of Engineers, they handled the whole project. Rend Lake was 19,000 acres, ave depth was 6 feet and the deepest part was at the dam, 30 feet. It was more like a giant pond than a lake :~)
