Bluegill?
That's fine eating.
Just need the secret beer batter recipe.
1 egg
1 cup Bisquick
Beer
Dry the fillets, then dunk and deep fry at 350 (not higher).
About 2 minutes, or until golden. Drain on cooling rack.

Try some Vadalia onions with this batter.

Yeah they are yummy but but it takes 50 of them to make a meal for 1!

Bluegills need about an hour presoak in the fridge with a saltwater mixture. I use about 3TBS. salt to a quart of water. Just enough to cover the fish. It firms them up and adds some flavor. Then proceed with smokepole’s recipe or use an egg wash followed by a dredge in a mix of white flour and cornmeal seasoned to taste.

Waste not, want not.
