Does it hurt to do this?

I think someone borrowed my skinning pliers and didn't tell me.

I cut the heads off and cleaned the guts out of some catfish and then froze them in a ziplock bag with water in it.

Why not just put them on ice and get some skinning pliers tomorrow?

I guess I could've.

I had to hurry up and clean them and leave.

Just filet em like any other fish next time. Plus if you filet it gets rid of that silver stuff you leave behind when skinning

Unless you are frying whole.

I have no idea what the skin will be like when you thaw out. Probably no problem
