I need advice on where I can go catfishing on the Missouri side of the Mississippi River near Florissant Missouri. Where I've been going for public access Im catching mostly Garr fish.
I am disabled but can walk ok.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you

There are some big cats in St.Genevieve, Mo not shure about acess. Wait just checked google earth and found Little Rock Rd. at the north east end of St. Genevieve gravel road with a boat ramp and some rip raf rocks near the bank. That’s 80 miles from Florissant only other acess I know of is near Alton, IL on the Mo side. To find them near the bank I think you will need to wait till late fall early spring in scour holes out of the current. Caught my biggest cat March 29th, water temp
38 deg. About 10 ft from the bank with in sight of the St.Louis Arch. Good Luck

You do know if you have a mo. Or il. Fishing license you can fish on either side of the river and there are several places to fish but most do have a little walk depending on the height of the river

According to Missouri department of conservation‘s page on reciprocal fishing privileges with a Missouri license you can fish the Mississippi river in Illinois, Kentucky and Tennessee. Just remembered some river access near St. Louis is near the Chain of rocks bridge.
Google earth app is great for scouting out locations along the river. Good fishing 🐟🍁🎣

Thank you. Yes. My friend told me that. Due to illness I haven't been able to go for a while. But I plan to buy Illinois license so I can fish both sides of the Mississippi.

My father in law was telling me about that. It's great to know. I do plan to get an Illinois license anyway to go to a few lakes in that nearby state. Thank you for your information
