    1 bag of your favorite seasoned croutons chopped up with an electric chopper or smashed up in a bag. Take fillets and drizzle with evoo(extra virgin olive oil) then coat fillets with crouton breading. season to taste if you like. Bake until crispy and brown. About 30 minutes at 350 in the oven. Add some veggies sweet corn or squash and some fried potatos add a couple of cool beverages and you are set.

    Take 1 stick of butter and smear it on the bottom of tin foil and lay the fish in it. Slice up 1 onion, slice up some mushrooms, green pepper and 2 tomatoes. Salt,pepper, and steak seasoning wrap it up and throw it on the gill for 10-15 minutes. Best fish I have ever had. Way better than fryed.

    I’m in favor of panko crumbs, this is Japanese bread crumbs, season some flour coat fillets, then egg wash, then some seasoned panko, to the peanut oil she goes, don’t get the oil over 350, you will be the hit of the camp. We will also wedge up some potatoes in a pan and pour 1/2 beer over them, and stir, stick in shore lunch and shake that thing! Add to peanut oil between fish. Makes great broasted potatoes. Seems like I can almost feel my ribs, must be time for lunch.

    Growing up on Lake Oahe in South Dakota has given me the opportunity to catch and cook many a Walleye. Here is the best recipe that I have come up with. Much better than a hamburger.

    Beer Batter:
    1 egg
    1 cup flour
    1/2 cup beer
    1 tbs baking soda
    1 tbs baking powder

    Tartar Sauce:
    Add a little pickle relish, onion, and horseradish to miracle whip. Stir well and chill overnight.

    Deep Fry it up and have a couple

    I usually use one of the small packs of instant patato(sour creme) and flour. 50-50 mix in one bowl. and an egg or two mixed in another depending in amount of fish. Dip in the egg then into the flour mix into pan!

    1 Box of Don’s Chuckwagon (Available at Cub and other places.)

    1.5 cans of

    The key is to keep the temp of the oil between 325 and 350. Temps overshooting 350 will cause the batter to cook off of the filet, and come to the surface in blobs. This is often overlooked, and very important. I have cooked with beer batter at 3 larger resturaunts about 25 years ago, and have continued up until now. The keys are temp as I mentioned, and the batter should drip off a fork. Not in clumps, and not thin like water, but more like the consistency of paint.
    This will give you some awesome batter!

    tonight, its jenny’s favorite, grilled walleye – drizzle both sides of a couple of filets (from 16-18 inchers) with olive oil then sprinkle liberally with jamaican jerk spice. put filets in fish basket, cook on grill, flip just once.

    another big hit at our house – walleye sandwich – fry lightly breaded filets, then make sandwich on bricco bread with slice of cheese, thin sliced onions and horseradish mayo.

    for fish fries, we use louisiana breading, a light cornmeal/flour mix with a little cayenne

    and, of course, leinies if we got um

    DJ, i’ll have to try that walleye gumbo. for meat in our gumbo, we usually use some combination of smoked sausage, shrimps, duck or sometimes chicken. what do you use with walleye?

    You have to love Jamaican Jerk seasoning. I thought I was the only one around here that cooks fish with it. I usually only use it on chicken, but my brother-in-law demands it on fish when they come over for dinner. It is good but not my favorite. My favorite is a tie between Shorelunch Cajun and Marv Koep’s baked recipe.

    Man, they all sound good! We should start an IDA cook book forum for game and fish!

    Put a few fellets in some tinfoil, add about 1/4 stick of butter and sprinkle lemon pepper seasoning on them. Wrap them up and grill for approx. 15 minutes! MMMMMMMMMM

    Good idea on the forum Chris. Call it the PETA forum.

    It is on my list to James for ideas for IDA.

    I use Chef Paul Prudhomme’s Seafood Magic.
    Broil or pan fried.
    You can get it at most Cub stores

    why stop with a fish fry cook off? Make a wild game cook off, and fish being a sub-category. I like to see peoples ideas, I never usually follow a recipe to the tee.
