have to get up above 3,000' around here to find brookys. certainly tasty though. save that bacon grease.
my breading mixture is 2 parts buttermilk complete pancake mix and 1 part fine white corn flour w/out lime added. mix together (shake in tight container adding flavorings such as tony's or other cajun/creole..) in a rectangular container with tight lid. add couple of properly cleaned and scraped fish then shake well until coated uniformly including inside. after frying drain on brown paper bag, serve on plate with a small squeeze of lemon atop, with fried taters and onions, kernel corn is a good side as is baked beans (non sweetened or not much sweet).
