Fried some Crappie last night MMMMMMMMMMM

[Blue_Runner]

Me and some buddies caught some crappie (aka white perch, croppie, speckled perch) yesterday evening. Probably about 10 or so. I kept 2 for the frying pan. Scaled, gutted, cut-off the head & tail and washed them real good. Then I cut vertical slits through the meat down to the bone but not through, then one horizontal just above lateral line (vertical Slits about 1 inch apart). Breaded them real good with some seafood breader and made sure to get the breader down in the slits and fried them up on each side in about 1/2 inch of veggie oil.

I literally drove over to my mamma's house and smacked her, they were soooooo good!!
I feel sorry for the crappies this summer. I think we are going to have quite a few memorial services for them, God bless thier little souls. Have pix but can't post. I won't make any promises but maybe I'll get around to posting them.
