Excerpt from wordyvirdee.medium.com:

Wolf Lake is one of the largest open water bodies in the Credit River watershed located within Terra Cotta Conservation Area in Caledon, Ontario. It’s a favorite spot with nature enthusiasts, anglers (fishing), and boaters. Designated and protected as a Provincially Significant Wetland that drains through Second Creek, up from the Niagara Escarpment into the Credit River.

This lacustrine (standing water body) is a warm water fish community characterized by self-sustaining largemouth bass, pumpkinseed sunfish, brown bullhead, white sucker and various minnows. Its frequented regularly by anglers throughout the bass fishing season lasting from late June till late November.

Although, there aren’t any fishing restrictions on other fish species during regular angling season, conservation area rules do not allow any fishing outside the bass season. Therefore, ice fishing is not permitted on Wolf Lake. There also a potential of Wolf Lake to be considered as an ice skating venue during winter which rules ice fishing out (a plan that yet remains to be implemented but one that’s eagerly awaited!). A valid Ontario fishing license is required stipulating all anglers be between ages of 18 and 65 before attempting to enjoy ‘catch of the day!’
