I don't fish much anymore, they're way to messy to clean based on what you're left with. I regret it though, every spring I say this year.
Truth is, I am a catch and release type, not much into the eating part.
I have a cajun brother in law who puts every fish he catches in the freezer, or cooks them immediately. His fish frying technique is legendary.
He also makes his own spice mixture. His spice recipe puts Tony Chachere (sp)to shame.
Thanks for posting the recipe link. I’m going to try some of those.
