Fish Tacos


Recommended Posts

Does anyone have a recipe for preparing fish tacos that they have had success with? I've done some web research, but was curious of what the real experts say. I prefer w/ battered walleye pieces, if anyone could share a recipe, I would appreciate it. Thanks, Coach Dog

I am not sure, as I have never used battered fish for it. I have always used fillets cooked on a flat top griddle or in a skillet with red-fish/blackened seasoning. Sounds interesting and I bet it would add a nice texture to it. I hope others have better informaton then mine

my wife's version of fish tacos is breaded fish, fried and served in a tortilla with lettuce cheese and tomato.

my version is the baja/surfer style taco. fresh tuna chunks seared and served with limes, pico, cilantro, and hot sauce on a fresh tortilla. mahimahi, marlin, or any other fresh catch are good as well. The fish is usually prepared blackened style with lots of pepper and cumin.

I often make Crappie tacos.

I have fried and baked them (fried taste a little better, but baked are good too)

I just set up an egg wash (seasoned flour/egg/bread crumbs). Fry them...

Wrap them in a soft taco with some cheese, cilantro, lime, coleslaw mix (gives a nice crunch) and I make a salsa/tarter sauce (basically mix tarter with salsa).

VERY GOOD (good for you too if you bake)

Campfire Tacos.............

Get some aluminum foil your going to make a campfire cooking package.

Put some salsa on the foil lay the fish on the salsa.

Sprinkle lime or lemon juice on the fish.

Close up the package and bake on the coals.

Scoop the fish and salsa on some heated soft taco shells with a little shredded cheese.

    • Sorry to hear that Duff. Will give my GSP's an extra scratch behind the ear for you guys today
    • Aw, man, sorry to hear that.  Shed some tears and remember her well.  They all take a piece of our hearts with them; some more than others.
    • yes sorry for your loss..  our dogs are always special...
    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
