All fish have more or less slimy substance on the outer flesh. The slime is part of a fish's mechanical defense mechanism against minor injuries and pathogenic organisms.

However, Catfish are very popular fish with a slimy flaky flesh, since they are smooth on the outer flesh with no scales, they are naturally covered with a thick slimy layer, which needs to be pulled out or scraped before boiling, smoking or cooking the fish.
