Another vote for halibut, wild salmon being next(farm salmon is disgusting). Walleye is also good

Deep fried catfish is way down on my list. Deep fried anything!!

My experience with fish is that some people know how to clean it and cook it, and some don't. When it comes to catfish, the advice about cutting out the "bad" parts of the meat is dead on... You'll never have a finer meal than fried catfish and hush puppies and/or fried potatoes.

Done with or without dogs in WNY. One of our biggest small game hunting things to do. Lots of people will be out tomorrow morning.

No what are you referring to ? A hog being nasty or grow house chickens eating their own poo? There are hundreds of chicken houses around here and the eater houses grind up the droppings and mix it in the feed. Guess you want a link !!

Here you go Donnie. Fresh off an AG site not PETA
How and why is the chicken manure fed back to them? Chicken manure is fed back to the birds because after the manure is dried an flavored with molasses, it resembles soy bean meal. The mixture is fed back to the chickens because it is rich in protein. 4.

Best way I ever saw to skin catfish was to dip them in hot cooking oil for 20-30 seconds, take out and peel the skin with your fingers.

I heard a diet high in catfish can stunt your growth...

Catfish is good imo. The water they inhabit here is another story. I think that's why most folks won't eat them.

Around here, we have quite a few flathead catfish and channel. My wife and I last summer caught 31 catfish in two hours one day all of them were descent size, we had a few over 40 inches.

I would have to vote Ling Cod - tasty- harder to overcook; plentiful on west coast

It's just you. Plenty of good eating fish of many species come from warm water climates.
