Thanks so much I will leave out the other fish as we just use salmon, as my husband fishes for it. Can't wait to try it out.


This looks wonderful, can't wait to try it.


OMG...I LOVE fish pie! This one has been Soooo bookmarked! I have a Jamie Oliver recipe that I adore but now I will also give this one a try. Thanks!


This will be great. I will have to substitute some of the fish with walleye and crappie. But I'm sure it will be good. Thanks for the great recipe. L.
