Pretzel-Crusted Catfish Bites image

I'm not a big fish lover, so any concoction that has me loving fish is a keeper in my book. This combination of flavors just works for me. It's wonderful served with a nice buttery herb rice pilaf and corn muffins with honey! -Kelly Williams, Forked River, New Jersey

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my catfish bites were soggy. I think I might have overcooked them.

These catfish bites were a bit bland. I added some extra seasoning to the breading and they turned out much better.

I didn't have any pretzels on hand so I used crushed crackers instead. The catfish bites still turned out great!
