If the filets are large, I suggest you slice them into 1/2s or 1/3rds. A lot of people will only take a piece or two if there is plenty of other food available.

This is the perfect response. Will add there is a big difference between a fish fry where people will eat there and selling fried fish plates. For a fish fry unless the fillets are small (than 2 or 2.5 oz) cut them in half before frying. For 75 people with other food options 35-45 lbs will be more than enough.
