Bank fishing on Conroe

[FishinBob]

Where is a good spot to bank fish for Catfish on the northern end of Lake Conroe. Also what is the best bait and rig to use. Thanks

[OxbowOutfitters]

Not many options other than the Boat ramp @ fm830 or Cagle Campgrounds..Mabey the side of 1097 bridge..
Everythings private now..Rigs..?
cork & minnows ..
depends on what ya want to catch

[FishinBob]

I apologize. I meant to say south end. Around 105. Thanks

You can fish off the bank at April Plaza Marina on FM 105, for a small fee..........Peeled shrimp dipped in Premo catfish bait is good, along with fresh cut shad........Capt. Wayne

Has anyone had any luck lately at the April Plaza Marina off the bank? If so give us some details please. Thanks

There is a city park on the south end thats great swimming and fishing. During the summer I take the grandkids there for nite fishing.

[FishinBob]

Is that park called Banana Bay? Across from Papas?

That looks like it would be a good place to fish early morning on those bulkheads near jack in the box.

That park has a big pier as well that you can fish. My sons clean up on the Bream when I take them down there.

Scott's Ridge can also be fished from the bank.

i got a few tanks that you can fish in big bob..plenty of big cats in them too

Yeah Scott's Ridge by 1097 bridge tends to do well for bank fisherman. Get there early though, it gets packed quick.

Stopped at April Plaza Marina this morning at 7 am on the way to the bank for a couple of hours of fishing and caught this bass on the first cast with a second pole on a worm. Only other fish caught was a carp about an hour later. both fish released after pictures were taken. Didnt have any scales with me to weigh but felt like a 5 lb'er for sure.
