    I would like to know if the level of mercury in the Clinton Resevoir
    has drop? Is it safe to eat?

    Last I heard is no women,in the child bearing years,or children should
    eat any fish from the Wachusett Res.  and Men should only consume a 5
    oz. portion per week.
    (not enough to fill one's big toe)...

    Is it true that you no longer need an MDC permit to fish Wachusett?

    It's true, no permit needed.  I would advise reading the posted
    regulations before you fish though.  They are usually posted at
    all parking areas and gates.  The MDC police patrol it regularly
    and DO enforce the rules.
    
    Good luck
