Walleye is fun to catch and delicious.....yellow perch is even better in
both categories.

Jim, one of the guys from Ohio makes a dish that is very good, wonder
if you've ever heard of it: He fries some cabbage in butter with onion,
gets it kind of browned and carmelized, and adds this to cooked
noodles. It is MUCH better than you'd think. I want to learn how to do
that.


Sounds yummy.

We dip the fish in flour, then and egg/milk mixture, then seasoned bread
crumbs, then fry them in oil.

We have always tried to duplicate the perch recipe from the Village Pump
http://www.villagepump.com/ on Kelleys Island....we finally got the
recipe when we jumped over there on my friends boat a couple of weeks
ago.....no egg, milk or flour....just a dip in some specialty breading and
frying them in oil.

BTW: If you ever get a chance to get up to the Islands for a fishing trip,
make it a point to head over to the Village Pump. Nothing beats their perch
basket washed down with brandy alexanders. We are vacationing on the island
in a lake front house for the week this summer. My friend's family is
coming with us , along with his newly restored 26 foot Lyman. We are
supplying the house and he is supplying the boat. I can't wait. ;-)

I'll put it on the list! I'm going to see my friends in Lorain, and
Vermillion in July, and am compiling a list of things to do (besides
perch and walleye fish!). Last time there, I had a good time going to
these little clubs that were around. It seems that all nationalities
had their own club, The Chek club, etc. Went to a Polish one and had
the best damned food ever!
