We have catfish fillets in the freezer, but for some reason catfish tacos sounds weird what fish would you use? I'm in shreveport btw...

Mahi is always a winner. Tilapia is served n messican joints everywhere, but people on here will throw stones at it.

I usually use grilled salmon and occasionally tuna. But Mahi is good too.

Specks are awesome. So is flounder.

Tilapia is good as it really has no flavor of it's own and takes on what ever flavor you give it.

Salmon or tilapia should be fine and easily attainable. I would suggest smoked paprika and cilantro and a squeeze of lemon.

I think your catfish would work also if farm raised.

Fried shark if what's supposed to be used.

I've used pan fried catfish and they came out good.

I just get whatever's fresh at the store. This usually ends up being tilapia or farm-raised catfish. I'm putting it into tacos with other flavors, not necessarily going after highlighting the flavor of the fish itself. This is going to be a healthy and delicious Ash Wednesday meal for us...
