Raw catfish
Raw catfish is a members item, with a high alchemy value of 165 coins. The simplest way for an Ironman to get Raw catfish is to buy it: Meena's Fishing Shop in Menaphos sells it for 275 coins, and one other shop stocks it too.

Ironman verdict
You can also make it yourself: it takes 60 Fishing and gives 85 Fishing XP, using 1 × Fishing bait. Other sources include Fishing spot (Menaphos). Where the materials come from: Fishing bait (sold by Gerrant's Fishy Business for 3 coins). Making ten takes 10 × Fishing bait and gives 850 Fishing XP. Reaching level 60 Fishing takes 273,742 XP in total; the Fishing calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Fishing guide has the Ironman training route. One recipe uses Raw catfish: Catfish. Raw catfish is members-only. It is tradeable on normal accounts, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade for it, so the sources on this page are the whole list. High Alchemy turns one into 165 coins, which is 110 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
