We had an awful experience with Captain Mack's Catfish Sunday evening. We ordered what we had ordered before, plus extra hush puppies. I couldn't really smell the fish until I got home and opened the cartons. Either the oil was old or something was burned in it because the fish tasted nasty. The outside looked beautiful, but the inside was gray and in some places kind of gooey. I took one bite of one piece and the taste was unpleasant. I broke another piece of fish to look at it and that's when I saw the kind of grayish gooey spot. I refused to eat any more.

I remembered a referral from a friend that if I was ever in Duncan to try the catfish at Captain Macs so that's exactly how my wife and I ended the afternoon. The four piece catfish with baked potato with sour cream, beans, slaw, and salad 🥗! The meal was wonderful and if fish isn't for you we we're surprised that they also served some wonderful Mexican dishes. The waitresses were delightful and attended to our needs while we enjoyed our meal! Until we eat...
