Description
Fishing At Argyle Lake.
Argyle Lake State Park is located in Colchester, Illinois.
The 1,700-acre park is home to the 93-acre (artificial) Argyle Lake which is known as a fisherman's delight.
The lake is stocked with bluegill, redear, channel catfish, largemouth bass, crappie, tiger muskie and rainbow trout.
Rich in local history, Argyle Hollow (now occupied by the lake) once was part of the stage route between Galena and Beardstown. Several times a week the high-wheeled, cumbersome coaches with their double teams of horses rumbled through these beautiful hills and valleys.
From my eyes, through the view finder to the click of the shutter. I hope you enjoy these moments in time that have been captured.
This photograph has been Digitally Enhanced to help this image to be considered a unique moment in time.

I do not live far from Argyle Lake State Park. I have to admit that I have never been there. Your picture inspires me to take a day trip there-- and my camera ( and probably tick spray!)
