			Directions:
			1.  Preheat oven to 350 F.  Coat a 9 x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.  
2.  In a medium bowl, combine the crabmeat, bread crumbs, celery, eggs, mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper;  mix well.  
3.  Place the catfish fillets on a work surface and season with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon pepper.  Spread the crabmeat stuffing equally down the center of each fillet, roll up, and place seam side down in the baking dish.  Brush with remaining 2 tablespoons melted butter and sprinkle with paprika.  
4.  Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.  Serve immediately.
