Doing a largish fish fry in two weeks. Generally I have a solid amount on hand but haven't been fishing very much. Where would I buy fish for 10-25 people?

Catfish would be fine but if I could buy some type of saltwater fish I'd consider that as well.

Forgot to add I'd be purchasing in N.O. metro or Northshore

Catfish is sold in 15 pound cases from Guidry’s. It’s what most groceries have. They take it out the case and package it in foam trays. Ask a grocery store or just go to a seafood store.

And they offer it in filets or cut pieces. I just find that after you defrost them, you'll have a crazy amount of water to dry off the fish.

A 15# case of Guidry's will feed 25 people easily with sides. If you want fresh, call NOLA Fish House.

In NOLa you can drive to the seafood market on the West Bank

Since you included Northshore, B&J Seafood in Hammond, just off I-55 often has wild caught LA catfish. A much better product IMO
