I was trying making a meal but it a little difficulty how many calories would you average it to be. Frying it in a little canola oil.

    weigh the catfish and log it. weigh anything you add to the catfish, including oil, and log it.

    It's a game changer, for sure. Also saves on dishes since you don't have to use cups and spoons nearly as much (I just use liquid measuring cups now).

    Cooked catfish is about 40-50 calories per ounce before considering the breading or frying oil. I'd call a 6 ounce portion about 450-500 calories. 250-300 for the protein and another 150-200 for the breading and oil absorbed from frying.
