Reply #15: Enjoy that catfish!..

[youthere]

I remember when I was about 15, I was visiting my oldest brother in Florida, and he took us to a place that was famous for catfish (I think it was called Johnson's catfish shack, but I could be wrong), I'd never eaten catfish before and I just loved it.
Fast forward about twenty years and my husband (who is an avid fisherman)decides to put on a catfish feed...I was so excited until I took the first bite...I HATED it. I try it everytime he catches and cooks it and I still hate it.
He's tried cooking it a lot of different ways, but I just can't seem to like it. I think it was because the stuff I ate in Florida were small, farm raised catfish, and these things my husband catches and cooks are gigantic, muddy, wild buggers.
I think I could eat my own weight in hushpuppies though.
Enjoy your feed...you've earned it!
