Freshwater Catfish from shore?

Would anybody be willing to share a productive spot from shore where freshwater catfish can be caught? I've tried Talquin and the landing at Lake Jackson (past the WalMart on Monroe) without any luck. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I know it is a little ways down the road but I see people catching catfish at the boat ramp at Econfina River any where from 6 to 8 in fish

Try Lake Miccosukee. Go to Reeves fish camp and walk to the bank on the left, nice place to fish for them and
other pan fish.

I went back and looked and last May we killed them in Talquin on the Gadsden county side.
We were running trot lines and bush hooks near High Bluff.

Just keep trying. Walk the bank and look for signs of others fishing. If you see a likely spot, stop and try it. Finding fish is part of the fun of fishing. I'd tell you but do not catfish anymore and the Withlachoochee River might be a little far for you to travel.

I've seen people catch some nice cats below the damn at talquin. I've caught a 10lber on a spoon while I was striper fishing down there. ....
