Spain looks awesome! My friend in Belgium vacations there often.

Regarding the off taste of catfish. What helps is to keep them alive after being caught and keep them in fresh clear water for a few days. A 55 gallon drum works if you don't pack them in, and can keep the water quality up. It gets rid of the off taste. A friend of mine keeps them in his spare bathroom bathtub. No wonder he's not married! grin
