Frank Holten Park — Attraction in Illinois

I'm a long time fisherman here and I will say that no park worker presence throughout the day for the most days I now come. so possible danger. Use to see white truck up and down street when curtis was running things. Don't forget trout stamp and don't forget even though you have a trout stamp there is still a time during the year when you just can't keep the trout or you breaking law.Big fish of all species. and stocked with damn trout every year twice. use to be cats but I dont want that either.
