Recently moved here and heard there is some good catfish in these waterways. However, there so many over the city....does anyone know where any decent spots are at?

if you go down mcarthur pass sandy lake, turn on to village parkway and follow the road. there is a big canal there. its the canal you can see from the intersection of mcarthar and parkway. i have caught big fish in there. also there are fish at andy brown park in the ponds.

here are a couple of cats i caught over christmas break

this is my monster 41 lb 38 1/2 inch cat!


this is a 23 lb 34 inches cat


this is a 21 lb 31 inch cat

Appreciate the info. Did you catch those on cut shad or live bait? I usually use chicken liver and shrimp for channel cats. Those look some big [censored] blue cats.

actually i caught them on good old hotdog lol. ive used everything before but over the years i found that hotdog worked the best and it was the cheapest ha. i get the ones that are made of chicken and pork its like a 1$ per pack. oya when you pull up to the end of the canal where the bridge is. there are 2 sides, one that is open grass and one that has the huge tree and chair. fish on the open side, the house near it throws bread out to feed the ducks and fish. they attract big cats there.
