We bag and freeze our fish 10 fish to a bag, this is 3/4 - 1 1/2 lb fish. When getting fish thawed for a fish fry I usually figure 2 bags will feed 5 with some left.

For MY family I freeze my fish 2lb fillets per bag. That usually takes care of Myself, wife and 2 small children. I'm sure once the kids get bigger I'll have to go to 3+ lbs per meal.
To heck with work, lets go fishing.
In our house I'd say about 1 good sized platter of fillets per person, especially if they're crappies or bluegills. :DOriginally Posted by FishnLine

I Cook fish for a lot of people, 20-30 sometimes. If you serve FF, HP and cole slaw 1/2 pound of fish per person. Here is a little method I use for freezing fish. I bought a Stainless Dial scales from cabelas Item # JH-51-5598for about $40.00. I record the date, Lake I Caught fish and # on the freezer bag. I freeze 2lbs. in a Qt.bag and 5lbs in a Gal. bag. When freezing fish I place fish in bag, fill with water. Place bag of fish under water and squeeze out excess water. This removes excess water and keeps air out. It Works for me, it also saves room in your frezer for more fish. Good luck on your fish fry. Crappie Nolan

When I'm just cooking for family dinner (4 people), I'll cook up around 20 fillets, that gives us some leftovers for the next day. For the neighborhood fish-fry I do a couple times each summer, I do like a couple others and figure on 5 or 6 per person, along with salt-potatoes, coleslaw, and whatever sides the neighbors bring. There is usually fish left over, and we send some fillets home with everyone and have a few leftover fillets for ourselves. Works out good for everyone to eat their fill and have a fish sandwich later on.
