Is air frying fish actually good? Today, I fried up some crappie and compared it to the traditional pan-fried crappie. Hope you guys enjoy this video and if you've done this before, make sure to leave a comment down below letting me know how it was for you!

I use panko bread crumbs. I tried corn meal and it would not crisp up the same as deep fried..
I like a 50/50 mix of parmesean and panko. Tastes great!

Fried these a few weeks ago and I was skeptical. They turned out pretty good. A little different texture, but not bad. Used Louisiana fish fry. Dipped first in egg/milk wash. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2021/01/full-105342-81430-6fa4184f_dd83_4f15_b3e0_ede1bd97bb55.jpeg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2021/01/full-105342-81431-32053470_ce40_433d_b9fe_e00c52606b54.jpeg)

It's not really frying. Its basically a small convection oven. I gave mine away to a daughter-in-law.

Haven’t tried air frying filets yet. But when I oil fried a batch of Bisquick and Club Soda battered filets last time, I reheated them in the air fryer. I kid you not, they were better as leftovers. The batter was crispier and sweeter.

Nothing beats deep fried! If Iwant to be healthy I throw it in the oven. Lost 20 lbs in last 2 months...I’ve been eating fried fish 2-3 times a week....May have an early/skinny heart attack but ill die happy 😃 eating my fried fish.

I tried it one time and that was enough!....As mentioned above, I gave mine to my daughter! I love to eat fresh fish, and can eat it until I make myself sick, and if it's not fried in oil or baked in a conventional oven, I'm not going to ruin perfectly good fish!
Just one more cast!

Good video Mr Miller. Been wanting to see this done. And I do love me some of that LA Hot Sauce! So much so, that I put it on hot air pop-corn instead of butter. I've also used it on salads as a dressing sub. And when my throat gets just a touch scratchy, that's right, I take a pretty good nip out of the bottle.
