Walking in a winter wonderland. I had extended family posting videos using their inflatable pool rafts for sleds.
It was slushy yesterday then froze again overnight. We're supposed to get near 40° today. Will probably be warm enough to melt it. Maybe.
We’re about to head outside and get one more snow football game in.
We're still covered pretty good. It will take a while for it to melt completely.

If the catfish you are getting tastes "muddy" whoever is preparing it is doing it wrong.
This is what it looks like when I make it, and everyone loves it:
Well that is my point. It takes soaking it in milk for an extended time to remove that taste. Or at, least, that is my understanding. It's not like opening the package, coating it with olive oil and whatever seasoning you want, and throwing in the grill/smoker/pan/whatever.If the catfish you are getting tastes "muddy" whoever is preparing it is doing it wrong.

It really doesn't.
I had some catfish skeptic angler friends and the last time we were up fishing in Wisconsin, I mixed in some catfish filets with the walleye filets - prepared them exactly the same - straight from the fileting table, rinsed with a little saltwater, breaded and fried - and 2 of the 3 could tell no difference and the 3rd actually preferred the fried catfish.
It's a flaky, white meat - just like walleye and crappie.
I guarantee I can make a catfish meal you'd love.
So, have you just heard about all of the effort required, or have you just put some filets in black iron and cooked them or grilled them like other fish?
I often use cast iron, olive oil, pepper, and lemon.
Sure, we prefer mahi, tuna , or salmon, but I am a cat fan for sure.

I have only made it once. I did the milk thing. I didn't like it. I have had it a few times in restaurants and it was okay, but not as good tasting to me as other fish on the menu.
Hmm, maybe I have only had it made by people who didn't know what they were doing. Like me.It really doesn't.

See my edited post above. I agree that other fish taste better.
