Lake Argyle

Anglers know Lake Argyle as one of the lesser-trafficked reservoirs of Western Australia, Australia. The standard playbook on a reservoir this size is to start shallow at first light, work outward toward deeper water as the sun climbs, and circle back to the shallows before dusk. Surface activity at Lake Argyle is a useful tell — boils, swirls, and rising baitfish point straight at the predator zone.
