It was a solid week for trout fishing with Senior Shoreline seeing a brief flurry of activity. Miguel Orozco of Vista had the biggest trout of the week with a 12.00# caught on green powerbait west of Senior Shoreline. This Wednesday we are stocking trout again so look for the action to pick up in time for the weekend.

As the water temperatures continue to climb, the bass are beginning to show signs of life. Largemouth Bass can be found lurking around structure. They respond well to crawdads, swimbaits, and dark colored plastics.

Crappie are being reported by fishermen trolling for them. Crappie are most often caught on finger jigs or live golden shiners.

Catfish are being caught throughout the lake. Jose Hernandez of Escondido caught an 11.50# catfish on cut mackerel on Senior Shoreline. Lake Wohlford cats prefer cut mackerel, or chicken liver.

Each month Whopper Contest winners in four categories are awarded a free fishing and boating permit. For information on the contest or fishing conditions, please contact the Ranger Station at (760) 839-4346.
