Any pay catfish lakes within an hour or two drive of Villa Rica?

I'm helping my father in law try to find a catfish pond within an hour or so of Villa Rica (Carroll County), which is about 30 miles west of Atlanta. Not looking for a public place to fish but a commercial pay lake where one pays for the amount / weight of fish caught.

So if anyone knows of any please let me know.

TIA,

Rob

There's a place in Douglas County just outside of lithia springs, i think it's called the Christian Catfish Hole or something like that, i can't remember the road it's off of, but maybe some others can help out. I've been their several times they have two ponds/lakes; one is for catch and keep(pay by the pound) the other is catch and release, but they have some huge catfish in that body of water.

I think the name of the road is Hiram/Lithia Springs Rd, not sure though. Take Hwy 78 out of Douglasville and go West into Lithia Springs, Turn left onto above road(Lee Rd. ends on the right) and cross over tracks. Go about 1 mile and its on the left. I take my two little girls there and they have a blast.

Thanks for all the information. I'll try to check out the one in Lithia Springs first - sounds like the closest one to the house.
