Venuti	09/10/2012 01:49PM Bob's Instant potato flakes and Slap Yo Mama cajun seasoning. No egg or milk.
shock	09/06/2012 05:59PM if you like the shorelunch and a little spice, mix original with cajun 1:1. instant potato spunds and crushed ritz are good too.
PINETREE	09/04/2012 10:27PM I have really got to like the cornmeal Shorelunch this last year.
Oakman	09/04/2012 08:58PM I do either Shorelunch original or sometimes Cornmeal. If I want variety I throw in some Italian Seasoning. The family likes it... Andy
lundojam	05/05/2012 07:10PM what PINETREE said: shore lunch cornbread recipe.
Jackfish	05/05/2012 10:58AM quote PINETREE: "I think the shore lunch mixes are good quality and good enough as is, or a good starter to spice it up with additions." We've always found the standard shorelunch breaders to be somewhat bland and needing some spices to increase the flavor to our liking. That's when we found the House Awtry breader above. Your mileage may vary.

Jackfish	05/05/2012 10:23AM We use Shorelunch brand breader, but we mix it with Medium Hot Breader from House Awtry Mills. A friend of mine introduced me to it and it's a bit hot by itself, but mixed 50/50 with Shorelunch, I think it's perfect. Just put the two breaders in a shaker bag, coat the fish, then fry them in a pan with maybe a 1/2" of oil. The breader isn't thick and crusty. It's light and tasty. The Medium Hot Breader provides all the spices so nothing more is needed, at least for us. Medium Hot Breader
blutofish1	05/05/2012 07:24AM Saltine crackers. Very tasty and very cheap.
bjager	04/27/2012 01:49AM that Cajun shore lunch is my favorite.
timatkn	04/22/2012 09:47AM Make my own, I am really picky about fish though and haven't found any commercial breadings I like or I read the label and don't recognize half the ingedients. Also a lot of commercial breadings have MSG which drives my BP up and gives me a headache. 1 part Panko bread crumbs 1 part flour Corstarch 1 table spoon, makes your breading crunchy Seasoning: garlic salt and Emerils BAMM! fish seasoning to taste. Dip fish in milk/egg then batter. Repeat if you like more breading or make it half dry the oher half beer batter. T
Warty	04/21/2012 09:38AM I like to mix up my own concoction using a box of Frying Magic as a base, wit a half sleeve of saltines crushed up to it. I spice it up with a variety of seasonings: garlic powder, Lawry's, onion powder, lemon pepper and whatever else is around.
PINETREE	04/16/2012 07:00AM We use a shore lunch corn meal style which puts a nice crunchy coating on.
TeamTuna06	04/15/2012 10:31PM +1 on the Shore Lunch...also a big fan of good ol cornmeal.
coolrade	03/19/2012 06:44PM Try harold ensley breading mix.
nofish	03/12/2012 10:33AM I like Shore Lunch brand mix with some extra Panko breading. The Panko adds more a little extra cripness to it.
24kGold	03/06/2012 07:54PM Shore Lunch Beer Batter is great. Just take along a plastic bottle of beer. It's a great batter for Walleye. Terry
campcook184	02/28/2012 08:09PM quote Bonvicken: "Andy's Andys Red Fish Breading " I have used this on fish, homemade pork tenderloins, and homemade chicken strips.. as well as fried chicken legs and wings, It is well liked around here..
PINETREE	02/27/2012 09:06AM Tried the Cajun shore lunch and it was Okay,just not into that stuff. Do like Shore lunch corn meal,it puts a nice crunchy coating on the fish. The original is good too.
izzy	02/27/2012 08:27AM I have used Andy's as well. Not bad. Shore Lunch makes a Cajun breading that my boys like.

LazyLefty	02/01/2012 11:40AM I like house autry medium/hot. It makes for a very thin coating on the fish. I just drop fillets into ziploc baggy of dry mix. I also use it for fried chicken on the rare occasion I actually fry chicken.
BRic	01/31/2012 08:56PM Drakes is great and not too heavy/thick. Don's Chuck Wagon is also great but heavy/thick.
butthead	01/31/2012 08:27PM The last 2 years I have taken potato pancake mix mixed at home with powdered milk, egg, and onion flakes. Makes great pancakes, but doubles very well as a dry fish coating. Might try it as a batter this year. butthead
PINETREE	01/31/2012 06:21PM I have used the original Shore lunch product,and I like it very much,but it is time to try something new. What is your favorite? I use to like the catfish shore lunch,but our local store does not handle it anymore.
