Feel free! :-)
I've not googled yet, that's a weekend type project and I slept most of
this past weekend, I was coming down with a cold. :-P

Hmmmmm... I have a Coleman in the shed, but I'd have to pick up a tank
for it. Would a good hot wood fire work ok??? Wood fires get EVER so hot!

I know that mom used her Griswold over campfires, but, well, mom is no
longer with us. I'd rather play it safe and I do have some cheaper cast
iron that's not being used. I'd just need to clean the rust off and
using it over the campfire would do a good job of seasoning it. <G>

I DO have a nice salmon fillet in the freezer, but good catfish fillet
is 1/2 the price and we both like it.

Thanks for posting the idea!
He gripes sometimes if I don't cook enough "variety". <lol>
I don't mined it gives me license to experiment, and that's
what makes cooking fun!
