{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Sunfish, scaled and breaded

Pancake mix!  I hadn't thought about that, but it sounds interesting. 

I enjoy filleted fish as well, but find it somewhat more dry and with slightly less flavor.  Just a personal preference.  Everything we ate up on the boundary waters was filleted though and I really enjoyed it, especially pike. 

The fun part up there (and likely Ontario as well) was making sure you had a good fire (smoke) going near the fryer to keep the mosquitoes off of you ;).

Omega 3s! I catch and cook sunfish (plus other panfish and LMBs too) practically every day when I'm on vacation in Ontario in August.  I usually filet them. I also fry 'em up after dipping/breading.  Fun part is winging it with whatever spices and other ingredients are handy. One can use any number of beer brands for the egg batter and for the breading I've used pancake mix, crushed potato chips, mashed potato mix, various breakfast cereals, digestive biscuits, pretzels, etc. etc.. Leftover batter and breading get mixed and fried up as "hush puppies" of a sort.
