RedactedNarrative: On 09/03/2014 at approximately 9:56am I CPO met with watercraft operator at Mill Creek Lake document the following boat accident occurring on Mill Creek Lake on 09/02/2014 at approximately 10:20pm. 
  
  Operator reported he was operating his 1978 Century (IL4263JC)at the time of the accident. Operator said he and passenger were fishing on 09/02/2014 at approximately 10:20pm in a cove northwest of the Mill Creek Lake Dam when they decided to move closer to the dam. Operator said they were traveling towards the dam using the woodline to their south west for reference. Operator stated he was on plane, traveling approximately 20mph. Operator thought he was traveling parallel to the dam, but said he was having difficulty seeing due to the light fog. Operator struck the dam and grounded his watercraft approximately 20-25 feet above the water edge. Operator advised me during the investigation he "was going to fast" considering the fog conditions.
