With my husband being an avid hunter and fisherman, I can never have enough new fish and wild game recipes. We especially enjoy this rich chowder. It's a hearty dish with big chunks of fish, potatoes and bacon in a tempting creamy broth. -Cyndi Fliss, Bevent, Wisconsin

I made this chowder in a Dutch oven over the campfire. It turned out great! The chowder was cooked evenly and the flavors were even better than when I make it at home.

I'm allergic to dairy, so I used almond milk instead of regular milk in this recipe. It turned out great! The chowder was still creamy and delicious.

This chowder is a great way to use up leftover fish. I had some leftover panfish from a fishing trip and I used it to make this chowder. It turned out great!

I love that this recipe uses panfish. Panfish is a sustainable and affordable type of fish, and it has a mild flavor that pairs well with the other ingredients in this chowder.

I'm not a fan of dill weed, so I omitted it from this recipe. The chowder was still very good, but I think it would have been even better with the dill weed. I'll definitely try it again with the dill weed next time.

I made this chowder with some leftover panfish that I had in the freezer. It turned out great! The chowder was thick and creamy, and the fish was flakey and tender. I would definitely make this again.

I've made this chowder several times now and it always turns out great. I love that it's so versatile - I can use any type of panfish that I have on hand. I also like to add a few extra vegetables, such as carrots and celery, to make it even more hea
