In McKinney we go to Super Shack. It may not be best in Texas but then I'm not gonna drive 500 miles for a plate of fish

The wife and I went to Big Shucks on Coit rd in Richardson, it is pretty good. Had a bowl of gumbo to start with.

Don't go out to eat fish due to liking my own better, but a place I have been to over the years closed last week, David Beards in Ore City. The food was always constant from one time to the next and of course loved the hush puppies. End of an era.

I frequent Big Shucks as well. Always get the shrimp and catfish combo with onion rings. It's always good.

Surprised they have good fried catfish. Back in the late 80's and 90's it use to have some good BBQ meats or I just did not know any better I have not eaten there in 8-10 years because the last couple of times I tried it even their sliced brisket sandwich was not any good, my son had the Chicken Finger basket that was tasty but then again that was 8-10 years ago.

Stub Dairy Land is our go to spot on our way from Graham. The menu is huge I've had the mexican food and the catfish both are really good. My buddy had a BBQ Burger Saturday and said it was really good. It's a cheeseburger with sliced brisket on it as well.

It is no good IMO. I never liked their fish either, there is a reason most of us locals don't eat there. I did get talked into eating lunch there a few weeks back, and my sliced sandwich was terrible, tough, fat, and no good. For those that like it, to each their own I guess.

Murn's cafe, catfish Friday, try the onion rings instead of fries.
The plate is all I need, have seen a few rather large individuals hammer the all you can eat.

I might point out; many places sell cod as catfish. Farm raised catfish is expensive. If its in big ole white chunks or squares, its most likely cod or something else. Catfish has a certain taste, not 0 taste. Ive ask before, and they get mad.

Been there twice both times disappointed in the Fried Catfish, small pieces that were very average at best.

Question for Austinites....Does the Manchaca Volunteer FD still do their catfish fry every Friday? I'm sure it was farm-raised but OMG that was some of the best catfish I've had in my life. If I remember correctly, plates were $7.00. They started selling every Friday at 11am and sold until they ran out, usually about 12:30 or so. Three filets, two hushpuppies, beans, and cole slaw. Sometimes they had desserts for $2.00, either banana pudding or cobbler of some kind. It was to-go only. I'd usually get a few plates for the office and eat mine in the truck while it was still steaming hot.
Te'-Jun restaraunts have on-point catfish, as does the Golinda Store just south of Waco.
Edited to add: Golinda Store on Fridays only.

I never cared for the fish, but liked the frog legs, and my wife says the CFS is really good. Frog legs are still on the menu as is the CFS. Ive never had a bad meal there. Catfish dinners always seems to be the favorite of the customers that are there when I am. Their parking lot was packed at 1:00 PM today when I drove by heading south on 287. It was still packed at 4:45PM on my return trip.
