Add the bacon and cook for a couple of minutes to brown, add the onion, celery, potatoes, garlic, bay leaves, thyme, and corn. As you chop and add items to the pot, keep the pot covered so the vegetables sweat faster and the heat stays trapped in the pot. Once all of the vegetables are chopped and into the soup pot, add the hot stock and bring to boil, it should happen almost immediately. Season the haddock with the seafood seasoning. Add the haddock, cover the pot and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook the fish 5 to 6 minutes then uncover and gently break up the haddock into chunks. Stir to combine, then add the milk, cream and butter. Simmer and reduce for 5 to 6 minutes more.
