There are many rewards for a day of fishing, but one of the best comes when you can sit down and enjoy a meal of your fresh catch.  By dinner time, after a day on the water most are tired and well north of hungry so the simple solutions to a great meal can be the best.  Read on to see what DNRguide likes to do. 

Find a ready-made coating mix that will season and coat your serving portion fish pieces, and prepare them for pan or deep frying. 

  • Moisten the fish with water, milk, or lightly beaten eggs. 
  • With the coating mix in a bowl or in plastic bag, coat or shake each piece until covered.
  • Pan fry for about ten minutes.  Or deep fry for about five minutes.  Shoot for golden brown.
  • Eat. 
  • Relax. 

What seasoning is best?  That of course is a matter of taste, and many do make their own.  Two popular ones that I use are Shore Lunch and Fryin’ Magic.   My favorite was confirmed again today with a batch of fresh northern caught under Minnesota ice - Fryin’ Magic.  An awesome flavor and a coating that came out of the fryer with a gorgeous golden brown.
