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.
Small to medium sized bass are being caught tight to shore. Rod Kiar of Escondido caught and released a 7.40# bass last Saturday on Bass Point using a Senko worm. Largemouth Bass can be caught using swimbaits, crawdads, or dark colored plastics.
Catfish can be caught throughout the lake but are more active near the west buoy line. Lake Wohlford cats prefer cut mackerel or chicken liver. Stop by the ranger station for a dough-bait recipe that works well on both catfish and carp.
Black Crappie are being caught mostly from boats. Crappie prefer the cover of shade and go after live golden shiners or mini-jigs.
Each month Whopper Contest winners in four categories are awarded a free fishing and boating permit.
