FRIED BASS



Fried Bass image

I made this while camping. It was a break at camp when nobody was there, so I picked up some worms at the trading post and went off to fish down at the lake. I caught 12 bass with the help of my dad, who came down there after he played guitar at the trading post. It was 7:00 when I brought them all back to camp and thought to eat them since everyone already ate dinner while I was gone. So I fried them up in some crushed chips leftover from lunch. Yum, yum, yum.

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 small deep fryer, follow the directions for use
4 or 5 small pieces of fish fillets per person: enough for a dinner: bass, trout, catfish, etc
1 gal canola oil (as per your deep fryer instructions)
BATTER
2 c pancake mix (krusteaz buttermilk)
2 tsp lemon pepper
1/2 can(s) opt: stale beer, (open and let set over night)
1 1/2 c water - more or less
1 pkg panko bread crumbs

Steps:

  • 1. Set up your deep fryer, as per your instructions on the deep fryer. I set mine out side on a special table or in the garage..not in the house. Fill with your oil of choice and set temperature as per instructions. Mine does not take long to get to right temperature..375 degrees
  • 2. Mix your batter: combine the pancake mix, lemon pepper, beer (opt) and water..Mix. The batter should be on the runny side, not thick. Just to thinly coat fish. Put Panko into a seperate pan. And next: Have a cake rack set over paper towels. (to set the fish on) Dip fish (I put a few pieces in the batter)in the bowl of mixed batter. Let batter run off a little bit and then coat with Panko, both sides. Set the Panko, dipped fish, on the cake rack to rest and dip the next piece..Only do one at a time.
  • 3. Put the fish into the basket of the deep fryer, do not crowd. Lower basket into oil and deep fry till crip and brown...approx 4 to 5 minutes depending on your fryer. Remove to a cookie sheet, lined with a paper towel (set in warm oven to hold for next batch) Every one around here, just starts eating them as soon as they come out of the fryer.
  • 4. Serve with a homemade (or store bought) tarter sauce and slices of lemon.

Nothing beats fresh fried fish and largemouth bass is one of the best. I actually prefer bass over bream. Serve with cut fries if desired.

GARY'S FRIED FRESH BASS



Gary's Fried Fresh Bass image

This is how my ex-DH cooks fish that he and my kids catch right here in 14-Mile Creek and Indian Creek in Southern Indiana...I hate to sound like such a simpleton, but this is the real, simple, "Mountain-Man" thing, a down-to-earth fresh fish recipe! NEVER any leftovers, although the kids get pretty grossed out watching ex-DH clean and fillet the fish!!! :) P.S. ex DH says you "Gotta have a 10" iron skillet for this one." VISUAL WARNING: The pictures were taken the last time ex-DH cooked this, and he is a VERY MESSY cook! LOL!
