Whole fish (on the bone, so to speak) or fillets?
What i have are fillets.  Here's a catfish recipe from XXCAROL,
but it calls for fresh, not frozen.

      Title: Dave's Fish Parmesan
 Categories: Seafood, Cheese, Sauces, Mushrooms
      Yield: 8 Servings
 
      2 lb Fish filets or steaks
     26 oz Jar Onofrio's Basilico sauce
           - or Marinara sauce *
           Salt & fresh black pepper
      1 lb Mozzarella or Provolone;
           - sliced or shredded
      1 lb Crimini/Swiss Brown button
           - mushrooms, cleaned, sliced
           - reserving 8 buttons
           Fresh grated or shaved
           - Parmesan cheese
      8 tb Butter; melted
 
  Set oven @ 425ºF/220ºC.
  
  Spread a thin layer of sauce over bottom of baking dish
  place a layer of firm whitefish filets on the sauce. Salt
  and pepper the fish. Sprinkle some sliced mushrooms over
  fish and place cheese in a layer over the mushrooms.
  Spread a layer of sauce over the cheese and repeat the
  fish, mushroom, cheese layers until the baking dish is
  near full or you run out of fish.
  
  Top the last layer with cheese, the remaining sauce in
  the jar and the 8 reserved mushroom buttons. Grate or
  shave Parmesan over until you are ashamed of yourself or
  until you run out of cheese.
  
  Drizzle the melted butter over the cheese and bake until
  fish is done - 15 to 20 minutes
  
  * Available from www.onofrios.com. Or you may use Rao's,
  Filippo Berio, Classico, etc.
  
  I like the addition of the basil in the Basilico sauce. If
  you don't care for basil with your fish use the straight
  marinara. - UDD
  
  Adapted from a NYT Cookbook recipe and served many times
  from Dirty Dave's Kitchen.
