Thinking about trying some early morning Catfish action at Mesquite Old City Park lake. Anyone got tips or pointers for this location?

Or should I be trying somewhere else?

ive never caught anything out of there but there are many on here who have..

i know they have been stocking them there all summer every cpl weeks, good place for a lot of types of fish if you take the time to learn the area

There was a pic of 60lb yellow that was caught out of Old City Park. That lake gets stocked with catfish all the time.

Yeah, I saw that Yella Cat on another post. And I keep hearing about the stockings. Think I'm gonna have to give it a try soon.

the one with the 60 pounder was drained a few years ago i believe. Palos Verdes pond i think? I went last summer and its full of 6 inch mud cats and some carp. I believe Kalub caught some nice bass out of it from some pics he had last year.

Isn't Palos Verdes the pond off of Northwest in Mesquite? Are we talking about the same place?

yeah i believe i remember the guy DIDNT catch that big cat at the city park pond

try the one off galloway with dk or cut shad give that a try

yup...palos verdes is off northwest....nice for walking and jogging...fishing was only worth it if you need live bait....tons of little bitty sunfish and mudcats

I remember a post about a guy catching a huge catfish out of the city park lake in Mesquite. It may have weighed 60 lb. He had pics and it was definitely City Park Lake in Mesquite. Was it a hoax?

That pic looked real to me. It looked a lot like Palos Verdes off Northwest in the background. I am almost positive it was Palos Verdes and not the city park one off Galloway. The guy who caught the 60 pounder released it.

Thanks folks. Gonna wet my line at Old City Park this weekend. I'll put up a report when I'm done...............Unless I get skunked

yes because the background didnt look like the city pond but he did catch it insome mesquite pond . he posted the pond but i cant remember the name of it , i tried to search for it but dint get anywhere

they completely drained palos verdes probably 6 or so years ago. and had to restock everything. that 60 pounder if came from there was probably taken and dropped from ray hubbard? . there have been huge cats and carp in city lake caught. kidfish stocks ther and evry 2 week stocking. anyway i have had good luck in the heat of the summer on ray hubbard at zion rd. piers on chicken liver. caught a big blue cat 2 years ago and alot of good eaters out there. heard a big bass out at palos verdes was caught. a neighbor said. palos verdes had bream and small cats the time or 2 i went lately
