It has been a solid week of trout fishing with many good sized fish coming out of Senior Shoreline and in Oakvale Cove. Top baits include mice-tails, mini-jigs, and inflated nightcrawlers.
Catfish can be found throughout the lake but particularly near the west buoys. Lake Wohlford cats like chicken liver, shrimp, or cut mackerel.
