You could try the old bay bridge in sandusky bay or even the maumee river up by farnsworth metropark or mary jane thurston state park (anywhere where it gets deep). The harbors aren't really what I think of when I think of catfish, more weedy for bass and crappie. I'm not saying they're not there though as I've never tried for them there. Some of the upground res's are good too.
ive fished the harbor alot, mostly for lunker sheephead, best bet for cats would be fishing the channel leading into the harbor. ive always had good luck with just worms on the bottom. you'll atleast get something hittin.
Ok tommorrow I am heading out to Maumee Bay State Park in the morning for some bassing and then in the afternoon I am headin over to East Harbor State Park, PM me if you wanna join or meet me and my friend out there!
I came to this page looking for info on small boat/kayak launch in West Harbor. I just bagged 2 Fish Ohio large mouth from West harbor. Multiple trips a week/month/year, and I’ve never been skunked. Recently pulled my Personal best of 5.25lbs and 21 1/4” long. The next day, 18 1/2” 4.5lb largemouth.
