When one of my followers mentioned that he was catching bluegill while fishing for perch on Moses Lake and It reminded me that I had a couple in my freezer. We often catch bluegill when fishing on Potholes Reservoir, and a fishing friend of mine said he loved fried bluegill. I thought of what he had told me this fall and saved a couple of them to give it a try. I have a selection of tools that I can use for scaling fish that made it quick and easy. I removed the heads and guts, and vacuum sealed them for the future. So, the other night I set out the thawed fish, and made an egg wash with an egg and some milk. I also added some lemon pepper. I dipped the fish in the egg wash and then coated them with Panko. I put them in a pan of hot olive oil and added some butter. When the fish were thoroughly cooked and a nice color, I let it cool a bit and then dug in. It was easy to flake the meat off the bones, and it tasted great. I may use flour next time for a crispier result.
