Never have but one time I had tenants fall through my garage ceiling. I noticed because they tried to nail the pieces back up. Once they left town my wife and I went back in and I decided to look in the attic and to our amazement there was a string of trout hanging from the trusses. These European tenants had a thing for it I guess but learned the hard way about stepping through the attic. Until then I didn’t now dried fish was a thing.

Well I guess I will let y'all know in a day or three if it is eatable.
Never have tried making fish jerky. Sounds interesting. It should either be pretty good or horrible, one.

I’ve had plenty of smoked fish. I guess if you let it dry enough in the smoker you’ll have dried smoked catfish. If you’re just hanging it up to dry, then it seems to me you’re going to have dried rotten fish.

Smoked sucker (smoked salmon too) is great!

IDK about a not oily white fish. Seems like it would be powdery and have a hard time staying together. Dried/smoked Salmon, Trout, etc, is a staple in MANY areas and cultures.Never have tried making fish jerky. Sounds interesting. It should either be pretty good or horrible, one.
But... There are very few things I won't try at least once.
Keep us posted.
Also, I don't think I would want to eat catfish without cooking them. A friend of mine's daughter was doing undergraduate research on parasites of catfish in the Savannah River Basin. She went out jugging with us a few times and collected a bunch of samples. I won't go into the details, but I would not eat uncooked catfish, I'll just put it that way.

Some places in warmer freshwater have the kind of funk that can kill you just by swimming in it, getting it in your nose, mouth or open cut.Also, I don't think I would want to eat catfish without cooking them.

That's a scary situation to me. Parasites are everywhere

I think that's true of all freshwater fish.

Well @NCHillbilly scared me out of trying this. I have enough near death experiences own my own without adding life sucking parasites to the mix. Haha. Just stick to deer meat I reckon
