Permit and Boat Rentals are sold at the Ranger Station. We do not sell fishing licenses, bait, or tackle, so anglers must acquire these essentials items elsewhere prior to their visit.

Due to the threat of Quagga mussels, there is a ban on private water craft and equipment. Restricted equipment includes; private boats, canoes, kayaks, float tubes, trolling motors, fish finders, anchors, and other equipment that contacts the water.
Largemouth Bass are plentiful in tight but seem reluctant to bite at present being more interested in other things. The bass are hitting crawdads, frogs, and other dark colored plastics.
Catfish were planted Wednesday and have been biting at the West Buoy Line among other spots. Lake Wohlford cats like cut mackerel or chicken liver, as well as dough-bait. Stop by the ranger station for a dough-bait recipe that works well for both catfish and carp.
The crappie fishing seems to be experiencing a lull. Crappie are most often caught using shiners and a variety of mini-jigs, white ones in particular.
Each month Whopper Contest winners in four categories are awarded a free fishing and boating permit. For information on the contest or fishing conditions, please contact the Ranger Station at (760) 839-4346.
