What to do with all the fish I have in my freezer...

You can leave out what you don't like, or add more of what you do. A lot of recipes call for halibut, haddock or cod, but it works just fine with crappies, bluegills, yellow perch, walleyes, pike (deboned, of course) or other firm, white fish. This will make about 10 one-cup servings, so plan on it feeding about four hungry anglers. It goes great with a cold beer and warm corn muffins or buttermilk biscuits.

Things You Need:
3 strips thick-cut bacon
1 large onion, chopped
1 stalk celery, diced
4 cups chicken broth
4 cups potatoes, chopped to bite-size
1 1/2-2 lbs. fish, cut into 1/2 - to 3/4-inch cubes
Salt to taste
Ground black pepper to taste
24 oz. evaporated milk
1 (15 oz.) can whole kernel corn, drained
How You Make It
1. Cook bacon in large stockpot until crisp. Remove bacon; crumble. Pour off all but 1 to 2 teaspoons of the drippings from stockpot.

2. Cook onion and celery in same stockpot until crisp-tender, stirring occasionally. Add potatoes and broth; bring to a simmer. Simmer 10 minutes or until potatoes are nearly tender. Add fish; simmer 10 minutes or until fish just begins to flake.

3. Stir in evaporated milk, corn, salt and pepper; cook until heated through (do not boil). Garnish with crumbled bacon.
