It's best when the catfish weigh under 1 1/2 pounds. The larger they get, the more fatty they get. 1 1/2 pound catfish or smaller just taste better.
I learned this from a man who owned a small local fish shack near Lake Livingston in Texas. His fish and hush puppies were so free of oils that you could run them through a press and get nothing. He said it's all about the temperature.
I was home on leave from the Air Force at the time and found out he was retired USAF. I had a beautiful photo I'd taken of the Taj Mahal on Randolph AFB when they had the Taj lit up in red, white and blue lights. Had a half-sized poster made of the photo and mailed it to him. Went back to the restaurant a few months after I got out (couple years later). His wife was trying to run the place, but he carried too many of his cooking secrets to his grave. I missed the funeral by less than a month. He had framed the poster and had it hanging on the wall. She said he talked about that poster every day until he passed.
One more thing - he caught ALL of his catfish fresh every morning.
