The Daily News General Manager Shanna Dickens is hitting the beach soon and will be mixing this smoked catfish dip recipe into her beach eats fare.

Soon I will be packing up my SPF 500 and heading to the beach. When I go to the beach I live almost entirely on smoked tuna dip. When I start my vacation countdown it goes: "Eight sleeps until vaca." But, also, in equal measure, "Eight sleeps until tuna dip." Next time my beach craving hits without a trip in sight, I'll blend my own Bushwacker and give this smoked catfish dip a try.
