I will be headed down to see my daughter and would like to take grandson catfishing. I do not have a boat so it will be from shore. Can anyone suggest a place to go around the Bridgeton area. I would love to get him into fishing! Thanks

I can't help you on catfish specifically but last SUnday was walking along the sidewalk to the W of Persimmons REstarant in New Bern and folks were catching some fish said they had caught croaker, spot, puppy drum and 1 catfish.. There were also some folks crabbing but the crabs were mostly below legal size. May be worth going there and throwing out a 2 hook bottom rig with some FRESH shrimp along with a couple of crab hand lines between the two approaches you may be able to keep him busy.
