Recommended by my good friend Garye at work. (You can count on Garye!)

(1-2) lbs. catfish fillets
(3) slices bacon chopped
(1) cup chopped onion
(1/2) cup chopped green bell pepper
(1) 28 oz. can tomatoes
(2) cup peeled & diced potatoes
(1) cup water or clam juice
(1/4) cup tomato sauce
(1-2) tablespoons worcestershire sauce
(1) teaspoon salt
(1) teaspoon pepper
(1/2) teaspoon thyme
(1) tablespoon Old Bay seasoning

Cut fillets into 1" pieces. Fry bacon in large iron *skillet. Add onion and bell pepper. Cook until tender. Add all ingredients except fish & simmer for 30 minutes. Add fish and cook for 20 minutes more.

Serve with cornbread - feeds (4-6) people

* You may want to use a large pot as it may be too much even for a large skillet.
