Limits of trout continue to come out of the east end where the water is flowing into the lake. Anglers have been leaving each day with full stringers usually by mid- morning. A large number of trout went uncaught during the wet winter and mild spring temperatures have prolonged the season. They are catching them on inflated nightcrawlers, salmon, eggs, and hook-up bait.

Catfish can be found throughout the lake. Lake Wohlford cats prefer cut mackerel or chicken liver. Stop by the ranger station for a dough-bait recipe that works well for both catfish and carp.

Crappie (sometimes in the high double digits) are being caught in the first couple of hours at the crappie float. Crappie respond best to mini-jigs or live golden shiners.

Largemouth bass can be found lurking around structure. They will chase shad raps, frogs, crawdads. and dark colored plastics
