BEA'S FISH COATING FOR DEEP FRYING FISH
This is another coating I like to use for fish fries. I use this with Pickerel or Bass but I'm sure it works well on other types of fish. It is tasty and not too heavy allowing the flavor of the fish to come through nicely. I just guessed at the amount of servings as I have never counted how many pieces it coats and I have not added cooking time as that depends on the size of the fish piece being cooked.

This is an excellent fish coating for deep fried fish. We have annual fish fries at our summer camp with all the pickerel (walleye) we catch and this is always a big hit. We use this same coating to coat french fries, yummy!
