General Information:

Farm raised catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) is a U.S. seafood success story.  Most catfish farms are located in the South from Arkansas to Louisiana.  The fish are harvested with they reach market size (1 to 1.5 pounds) and shipped live in tank trucks to the processing plants.  Because it is farm raised, fresh catfish meat is always firm and white with a sweet mild taste.  Catfish are bottom feeders so watch out for "wild caught catfish;  it will not taste the same.
