Currently we are credit/debit only no cash transactions. We do not sell fishing licenses so anglers must acquire them elsewhere prior to their visit. Facial coverings are required when purchasing a fishing permit or when entering or exiting the boats or boat dock area. The lake is offering $20 all day motor boats to seniors on Tuesdays and Thursdays and to active military every Saturday.
In order to protect Wohlford from invasive exotic Quagga mussels there is a ban on private watercraft and equipment that could have been exposed to mussels. Restricted equipment includes; private boats, canoes, kayaks, float tubes, trolling motors, fish finders, anchors, and other equipment that contacts the water.
The trout bite has been sluggish, but should improve once the water has had time to settle after the rains. If conditions dont improve by Wednesday the plant should do the trick. Big fish of the week belonged to Michael Villanueva of Temple City whose 8.40# trout was caught on a Fire-Tiger CD-3 at the east end of the lake. The most successful baits for trout this season have been mice tails and inflated nightcrawlers.
Largemouth bass can be found lurking around structure. They pursue crawdads, swimbaits, and dark colored plastics.
Crappie are being caught by boaters trolling for them. Crappie respond best to golden shiners or mini jigs.
Catfish can be found throughout the lake and favor cut-mackerel or chicken liver.
Each month Whopper Contest winners in four categories are awarded a free fishing and boating permit.
