Lots of good breading mixes out there. I love em all !
Since two back surgeries and a hip replacement, I need to keep my weight down so I try to avoid fried food on a regular basis now.

Here's a link to some great perch recipes:

Some are just too complicated, but most are pretty easy.
My favorite is the Maryland Perch In Tomato Sauce. It calls for white perch, but the yellows work fine.

My wife also substitutes perch for chicken in her pot pie recipe. Darn good.
