In order to protect Wohlford from invasive exotic Quagga mussels, there is still a temporary ban on private water craft 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.

Lake Wohlford is offering $20 all day motorboats to seniors on Tuesdays and Thursdays and to active military on the first and third Saturdays of each month. Half day Bass boats are available Mon-Thurs for 35$ each. The Trout fishing has been sluggish despite the recent plant. Willow Cove and the area west of Senior Shoreline have been producing the most fish. Salmon eggs, mouse tails and inflated nightcrawlers are the top baits.

The first Crappie to be weighed in this year belonged to Gary Greetis and weighed 1.35#s. It was caught at Bass Point on a red and white Crappie jig. Crappie prefer the cover of rocks or submerged willows and are most often caught using finger jigs or live golden shiners.
