Park Hours: 6:00 A.M. to 7:00 P.M. ??? Open 7 days/week

Water Level: Low, but rising
Launch Conditions: PRIVATE WATER CRAFTS ARE CURRENTLY BANNED

In order to protect Wohlford from invasive exotic Quagga mussels, there is still a
temporary ban on private water craft and private equipment that could have been
exposed to mussels. Restricted equipment now includes boats, canoes, kayaks, float
tubes, trolling motors, fish finders, anchors, and other equipment that contacts the
water.

Wohlford's water has cleared and Trout action has been decent with some nice
Rainbow Trout being taken. Top Trout baits have been night crawlers, power bait
(green & yellow), and power worms. Mike Snyder of Escondido landed a 6#12
Trout using Yellow and Orange Power Bait off Senior Shoreline. Best Trout areas
have been in Boat Dock Cove, Senior Shoreline, and in Willow Cove. Light line
and small hooks are a must for Trouting success. Four-pound test line or less and
size #14 or smaller treble hooks are recommended.

Bass conditions are ideal for the pre-spawn and the bucketmouths are expected to
move into shallower waters. Senko worms, Swim bait lures, crawdads, live golden
shiners, and plastic worms should work best for the Bass now. The canal that feeds
Wohlford has finally been cleared of this winter's rock and mud slides. Wohlford is
expected to rise 2 to 3 feet in the next several weeks.
