Mage could definitely substitute for Opie 😂
I 100% would watch a Kent branded Andy Griffith style show. I can already see the various wholesome cowboy lessons and adventures with the pups (Beag could be Barney 😂)
Now that does sound like a great show
@@CowboyKentRollins no cowboy hat while you're fishing? That ain't right 😂
Kent and Shan, I watched this through my tears. My husband usually watched your shows with me, and he passed Tue morning. He was also the one who brought home fish from the streams. Thank you for your fine videos. Bless you both and the 4 legged producers
So sorry for your loss, stay strong and remember the good times
Fishing has been the best thing for my PTSD. Love your Channel sir. Thank you for what you do. God Bless
Thank you for your service and for watching
If you got PTSD, push it down, Deep down. Don't talk about it.
@@PrOGopogo that's like the worst thing someone with PTSD can do
@@PrOGopogo If you have anything else to say, push it down, deep down.
@@michaelproctor2529 😂
1)crappie, 2)blue gill, 3)catfish. Deep fried with hush puppies and fried green tomatoes. Every fall, my in-laws do a fish fry for all the fish we catch and freeze throughout the year.
Please do more fishing / “catch clean cook” videos, love it. Glad you had some backups in the freezer 😂
Living on the shores of Lake Erie, I am blessed to have an abundance of yellow perch and walleye. I cook them a whole bunch of different ways.
It always means a Lot that you give thanks to service men and women and Vets like me. Just got your first cookbook, already have used several of your spices. Excellent !!! From one dog person to another, Thankyou from Arkansas.
I appreciate that! and we thank you so much for your service
Thank you for serving our country 🫡
Some people need and seek that gratification! While others simply believe it was their duty to their Country and need no gratification.
My buddies and I go every year and catch a mess of rainbow trout and some tiger trout for a fish fry with onions and potatoes at camp. Great memories and good times.
I'm originally from Missouri and caught a lot of catfish, white bass, bluegill and bigmouth bass. Been salt water fishing a bunch too, out on the west coast and down Mexico way. The worst day of fishing is always better than the best day in the office. Fried is the way to go with cooking fish, thanks Kent and Shannon for another great recipe. Hot oil and a flour and baking soda coating makes for delicious eating.
Has it really been 14 years since I've been watching this channel. 😳 not just because I'm a fellow Oklahoman I love the food that I that I enjoy and cook for family. Love you cowboy and family
Some of the most special memories of growing up were all the times spent at my grandparents cabin on a river up north. I loved relaxing in the boat fishing. The excitement with every new thing Daddy & Grandpa let me do was the best. I always had to bait my sister's hook, she is older but didn't like worms. I was given a spoon & taught to scale the fish and the day I finally got to fillet them...I thought it was heaven on earth! Nothing better than catching, cleaning and cooking your own fish! We're from Michigan but made some great fish! My other grandparents had many acres of woods. Grandma & I went out back for mushrooms and all kinds of berries & took them in to make all sorts of pies and other meals/desserts (freezing any excess). I wasn't able to be there when they hunted or processed their deer but cooked with lots of venison through the years. Thanks for the memories!
Thanks for sharing
The secret Cajun wet ingredient is French’s yellow mustard.
Yep, we do that in my family too, in Memphis. It really helps the coating stick.
I really like Heinz mustard more more tangy French's is watered down in comparison ..just my opinion try it sometime
@@tSxO44 Sounds good! I will give it a try. I love Heinz hot dog relish, it's kinda hard to find. It's Awesome in potato salad.
@@lilitharam44 guarantee u will like it enjoy😋🍽
Or mayo
A fishing tutorial by Kent would be awesome!
Small catfish and trout are my favorites! But I’m good with just about any fish that’s fried. And I love cold fried fish!
Here in Northern Illinois my all time favorite is about a 6-8 lb Channel Cat. I fillet them with no bones, good sized chunks with fried onions and a good quality hot sauce
The opening song is everything!! Good ol’ Andy Griffith brings back memories.
I watched a lot of episodes
I love walleye and trout. I so many fond memories of fishing with Dad. He loved catching the large catfish. TFS🐟👍
We love sturgeon, walleye, and catfish. We also like yellow perch, at least 8 inches. I use my Gerber multi tool with the needle nose pliers to pull those bones on a catfish.
So glad you gave Shannon a bite and the pups 🤗🐾🧸
That fish looks GOOOOOD! Sheridan, Wyoming peep here, and we have crappie, blue gill, walleye, bass, trout, catfish, salmon, and a bunch of other good-eatin' finned fare here. Prayer up for safe travels and good weather, you guys...my family and I will see you in Ten Sleep.
Mr Rollins, sir, it's always a pleasure watching you do magic in the kitchen with all your recipes!
Thanks so much
Not sure if i ever commented it but... It gives me GREAT pleasure to watch your videos. Been following for a few years and you always bring joy and food ideas to my day and i want to thank you for it
My goto fish is red snapper, Cuba (ling or lemon fish) and finishing up is Speckled trout! Pretty much same batter but for wet I use combination of a mustard and buttermilk batter!
I make my own tarter sauce and have used this recipe for years, the only other thing I always add is fresh chopped dill, a few dashes of ground cayenne, and some fresh cracked pepper. So many people love it this way when I make it.
Our house, we make a Quickie Tartar Sauce.. Miracle Whip(mayo if you like), Little squirt of Hot Dog Mustard and Chopped Dill pickles(sometimes Onions)
Great recipe Kent! When I was growing up fresh caught crappie, white bass and lots of catfish was a staple at my house. And the fish fry's? The Best ever! Those men knew how to do it up right. And the waives weren't a slouch either with the wonderful dishes that they made to compliment the entire meal including dessert! Thank you so much for bringing those wonderful memories to life with this video. Thanks to you and Shan for doing this for us all! God Bless you two!!
I do remember a lot of big fish fry's cooked a lot of fish in one them old cast black wash pots with hog lard
Rainbow trout is my jam. Not often fried, but it’s great that way too!
Yep, we have a video on baked trout in a Dutch Oven
@@CowboyKentRollins I’ve seen it. Amazing.
Keep up the good work Kent. I may not be a Christian or Republican but I love America too and everything you do.
Saltwater= Redfish, Freshwater= Crappie. Mmmm..Good! 😋 Thanks for the recipe and tips! 👍👍👌God bless yall!
Our pleasure! and God bless you
Love the fish dance, been following the channel since the very beginning still one of my favorite shows.
I’m from North Dakota
I enjoy just about any type of fish. Fresh or salt water. Of course the best tasting fish it one you have caught yourself. Thank you Kent for the info on batter and dry dip. Can not wait to go with my buddy to get some fish and have a fry. God bless you and your family.
I literally watched some Andy Griffith this am. 😂
My mom and a friend used to fish for hours sometimes. And then they would go home, clean the fish and then we would all get together and invite some other friends over and enjoy a fish fry, that evening. Good fresh catfish and crunchy hushpuppies. That's been many years ago and my mom has been gone for years, and so has her friend. But those memories are still there.
Kent and Shannon, i always enjoy your cooking shows.
Thanks for sharing, them were the good old days
Although I live in Arizona, I grew up in Massachusetts. I love fried haddock or cod. Great video as always!
Awesome! Thank you!
I find cod less flavoursome than haddock, but I find sea fish In general has more flavour than fresh water fish.
Great vid and tips. Perfect for celebrating today's important 248th birthday of the United States Army - June 14, 1775, spent a couple years in there myself. Them Marines came along on November 10th of that same year. We always remember that freedom has never been free.
Amen to that and thanks for your service
i absolutely LOVE the intro!!!!! you should do more of those and sarge looked so happy in the water. this really made my night and im still just at the beginning of the video.
Now that was some good looking fish you fixed there Kent. My mouth was watering the whole time you were jabbering and dancing after tasting your catch. My favorite is whole catfish and picking it off the bone and the easiest is filleted crappie. You did a great job , thanks for sharing. Stay safe and keep up the great videos coming. Fred.
Thanks Fred and God bless you
@@CowboyKentRollins HE DOES every day HE GIVES me on this side of the grass!
Loved the fishing segment. We need to see more of the cowboy life. The recipe is definitely the way I'm going to cook my next big catch.
Thanks for another great cooking class.
Hope you enjoy
I learned a trick out in Wagoner county where they used white cornmeal as opposed to yellow, and it made some of the best fish I've ever tasted. :D
Good afternoon from Syracuse NY brother and everyone else thank you for sharing your adventures in cooking
Thanks for watching my friend
You are welcome my friends
Hope you have a blessed day
GOD Bless you and your family brother
If Major says it's good then it can only be delicious 👍🏻
That's true!
Thank you for your Veteran salute at the end of all your videos Kent. GOD BLESS you & your family.
We owe them all so much
If you were talking about that fish you caught on the topwater, and called it a perch, that was a green sunfish if I'm not mistaken.
Been fishing a few time and I enjoyed it. We are basically in the middle of the desert so VERY limited options. Boyfriend says that growing up he and his Mother would go to the drainage ditches to fish for catfish late in the night. Her preference for bait was always chicken liver. Thank You for another enjoyable video!
Thanks for sharing! and for watching
Never underestimate city sense.
Desert Dweller here too.. My Mother always said "We live in the Middle of the Best Fishing in the World... 400 miles in ANY Direction"🎣
@@laurin4405 Loved your comment. although we are much luckier than your Mother we are like only 399 miles away. Well actually a couple of hundred miles!
Loving the intro mysic brings back so many memories of the show great recipe to😄
Glad you enjoyed it
Kent, I was cleaning and cooking catfish and perch when I was 8 years old. GOOD EATING!
Tell Shan that the pic of the filets laying there all GBD should definitely be in one of your cook books!
I really love fish and usually like eating
catfish with hush puppies, potatoes
gravy, coleslaw and biscuits this was
a really great show here today and
Thank You Kent.🤠
Sounds like a great meal to me
@@CowboyKentRollins
I live near both Lake Murray and Lake Texoma
so I've eaten a lot fish dinners like this a lot
from many of the cafes and seafood places
over the years Thank You Kent.🤠
Kent you sure know how make me hungry, catfish looks absolutely delicious!! Thanks Kent and Shannon for all you do!!! Till next time God bless you both and critter's!!🙏🙏🙏
I will say the best cat fishing we did on the North Platte River, was when I was a kid, we had set out some troll lines plus our rods, we were not having any luck by mid day, it was a hot day so we all got in a shady spot and took a nap, once we woke up we all had cat fish on the line. We were using worms and Craw dads for bait, I know you wouldn't think Nebraska would have mud bugs but we do. Also remember my dad's favorite straw hat blew off the headache rack on the pickup and that river sucked it under many times.
Good times for sure
I have so many memories of texhoma under the train bridge catching catfish… then in the morning we would check the jug lines then fry them up for dinner…. So miss those days!!!
Yep me and you both
Fishing trip catch and cook! Awesome! I’m always catching fish. Thanks for this awesome set. I’ll definitely try it. When I was 19 I worked the best fish and chip shack in Hawaii. Got an excellent tempura recipe. 🐸🍺🔪🔥
Hope you enjoy
Thank you for bringing back a fond memory of my youth. I jugged fished with my father and his friends quite often during my teenage years. Mostly catching cats. Huge fun, a moment that made me into the man I am today. And the fried catfish after our haul….amazing, but this recipe seems that much better! Thanks Mr. Kent and Shan!
Glad you enjoyed it, I sure miss some jug fishing
The worst day of fishing beats the best day of working.
Unless you are a commercial fisherman. Then it's a win win situation..
I grew up on the Gulf coast of Texas I do love me some crab stuffed baked flounder ,Cobia and red snapper.
Freshwater I love me some Gar, blue cat fish, and crappie.
God bless you and your loved ones
Im with the the worstershire sauce.
As i heard it, the name came about as follows...
Fella walks into the house, the gal is making some sauce on the stove...now she's just cleaning out the fridge and since there wasn't enough of each kind of various sauces in that need to go, but not enough for a meal. So she throws it all in a pot and starts warming it up. The fella walks up and takes a big sniff and asked 'WHATS THIS HERE SAUCE ' that smells mighty fine 😂😂😂
That looks great Kent! 50 years ago when I lived in Minnesota we caught sunfish and perch. Wonderful fish fry's. This recipe would be good with that. Y'all have a great week! Cheers!
Hey Kent great video. Never in my wildest dreams would I ever thought about putting capers or nasty horseradish or even the w sauce in tartar sauce. When i was a kid i ate ketchup on everything. My Dad said I grew up when i started eating Tatar sauce. My favorite fish of all fish is mahi-mahi. But living in Hawaii for three years I was eating fish a lot and we ate a lot of mahi-mahi and I love that fish. And as far as realistically goes I think my favorites are walleye and catfish which actually catfishing her so much easier to catch
I love to go fishing. For catfish, I leave deep-lake lures with some bait.
Back in South Dakota we used to go fishing for Bullheads, which I believe is like a miniature catfish, but dang those were some of the best tasting fish I have ever eaten.
Oh my mouth is watering! My favorite fish to catch and eat was steelhead. Nowadays it catch and release for those guys. But I love a good rainbow trout in place! Excellent content as usual Sir Kent.
Love fried fish, but Blackened Redfish on the half shell is my favorite!!! Thanks for the recipe, going to use it to fry up some grouper we caught last weekend!
Grew up with my grandfather eating bullhead (basically small catfish). This is how he used to do it, more or less. I need to try it out.
Hope everyone enjoys
Bluegill crappie and catfish are what makes it to my fryer, bluegill is probably my favorite.
When I put my catfish in the freezer, I usually soak them in salt water when I freeze them it seems to keep the flesh from getting soft in the freezer. Sometimes that happens when your defroster that’s just my tip that I learned from an old friend.
Thanks
My overall favorite fish is halibut! It's caught in Alaska and is cooked the best in beer batter. Thanks Kent, your videos are amazing.🙏😊
Mine is Red Snapper from the Gulf of Mexico. But, I like catfish and walleye, too. I can't get walleye down here.
Growing up we mostly ate largemouth bass Papa, my dad, and uncle Barry caught out of the little railroad lake in southern Kansas where we had a cabin. My mom and Gram just dredged it in cornmeal (maybe mixed with a bit of flour) and shallow fried it in an electric skillet. We ate it with fried potatoes and pickles and onions. Papa worked at the smelter outside of Henryetta, Oklahoma, before I was around. It didn't pay too well and he had a family to support, so I think fishing was a way to provide some cheap meat. He was an excellent fisherman. He would come up to the lake, take the boat out, and catch a couple of those great big bass, and then say, "The fish aren't biting; I'm going home." When they WERE biting, he could catch a dozen or more over the weekend. They did clean them immediately, then soak the pieces overnight in salt water.
We lived in Oregon for a time and I discovered fresh halibut brought down from Alaska. They would catch it in the morning and we would have it for supper the same night. Once when we were out there visiting I had some steelhead with blackberry sauce that was wonderful.
There is a place in Omaha that specializes in carp. I've been there a couple times, and it didn't appeal.
I absolutely love deep fried catfish,tuna,cod, red snapper,
OMG large mouth bass is awesome same day as caught. Walleye would be 2nd in my book. Great episode y’all!
Glad you enjoyed it
Good Afternoon from Central Illinois. What a great video, that looks delicious. My family's favorite fish is Channel Cat and we normally coat it with Andy's Breading and we fry it in Peanut Oil.
Another great creation. We like fish and this solves the issues of great taste. Combine it with the neat sauce you showed us for the fish, and the dance card is filled.
A Fine Irish lass, always appreciates a good Fish & Chips, with tartar sauce! 🐟🥔
Thanks again y'all 😊 I have to try your tartar sauce recipe! Sounds great 😋 God bless y'all 😃
Awesome video Mr. Rollins. I cook my fish similar to that, but I dip them in Buttermilk. I am now going to try it your way to get more crunch! Thank You!
I love some good crispy catfish nuggets. That was a bluegill "Sunfish" not a perch. Perch are yellow perch and Walleye. I use to call bluegill perch until my grandpa taught me the difference. The wind got you again. Those catfish look really tasty. I hear the crunch.
Cod, scrod, and halibut around here. But I sure did eat a ton of lake Erie perch growing up.
COWBOY KENT ROLLINGS I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
Can you make fried Oreos sometime??
We may try that this fall
This all looks so good. Reminds me of my family down south years ago and the fish fries we would have. We had hush puppies too. Love them. Thank you for this video.
So good, we do have a video on hush puppies
My straight up favorite to eat is rainbow trout. But they're hard to find in my neck of the woods. Most often if I'm fishing for something specific, it's crappie. They're my solid #2 and I know how to get into them.
"Well now, take down your fishing pole And meet me at the fishing hole". Love me some Andy Griffith!!! Love me some fried fish too!! Wonder how many knew there were words to that song? Wonder how many have heard his comedy albums? Andy was a true gentleman and a rare gem. Kinda like Cowboy Kent!! Thanks for sharing this one, Cookie!
I watched a lot of Andy Griffith growing up
I love capers horse radish and pickle! I’m Mexican Italian Irish German so I think it’s the latter two parts of me that like this food😂
And I ❤❤❤ fishing Since I’ve been in second grade and 55 now
Thanks for watching
Great video Kent! Learned a new method too. I would have to agree on your favorite fish to eat. Number 1 for me is walleye and then crappie. I like to dip in spiced flour then dredge in egg and lastly, panko crumbs. Home made tarter sauce
Love trout, snook😋, red fish, shark and the best catfish ever came from Lake Okeechobee!!!
I LOVE capers in my tartar sauce!! I add a bit of garlic powder & dill weed too.
Definitely needs to sit overnight to meld.
I have tried your fried catfish recipe several times. Hmm good. That buttermilk powder seem to be the ticket to great crispy catfish. That is probably the more traditional way. But there are many ways to fry fish.
For sure, got to have that crunch
Beer battered fried walleye, fresh caught from the Great Lakes is my favorite fish to eat, no question!
Kent, what do you do with your used oil after a fry?
I screen it and reuse it
@@CowboyKentRollins okay. Thank you. One more question then: does it have to be refrigerated or can you store it at room temp?
@@jamesmetzler2031 I'm no Kent, but I know you can do room temp. When you buy oil from the store you're buying it at room temp.
Love the fish dance Kent!!!!! Love a good fish. Fry . My favorite fish would have to be cod but I love catfish perch walleye. Any fish is good really, especially for a fish fry for me. We don't have fish fries often but I love the the reference to Andy Griffith it was one of my mother's favorite show. She watched it every day on reruns. She's in heaven now going on 3 years but it was one of her favorites. And there's nothing like good old fashioned television. God bless you Kent and Shannon. See you in the next video. Now y'all need to come to Michigan. That'd be great. Much love and respect
Looks delicious!! This Fall and Winter, take us quail or pheasant hunting and cook some up for us!
Interesting. I've always just used corn meal with added salt and pepper myself. Might have to try this out
Hope you enjoy
Indeed... I was Grown before I Learned there were more ways to cook fish than Baked(we rarely had that) or Fried in Cornmeal Batter🐟
Nice vídeo Sir ❤️🇧🇷
Thank you
Delicious fish recipe AND a Johnny Cash reference? You truly are an American treasure, Mr. Rollins. 😊
Watching cowboy Kent Rollins on the CZcams while eating his peach cobbler with bluebell homemade vanilla ice cream... don't get much better than this
Now that is good day
Looks delicious, thanks for sharing your tips for crunchy batter.
Our pleasure, thanks for watching
I think your perch is a bluegill.
I was going to tell him too. Definitely a bluegill. 😆
I am as City as there is and I love watching Kent's videos. Been subscribed for at least 2 yrs now. Food always looks perfect! 👌
Living near the Gulf, my favorite frying fish is either flounder or redfish (red drum). 😋
What timing! My father-in-law dropped off some catfish fillets this afternoon. He catches and cleans them for us but doesn't like to cook fish, so he has me do it. My process is pretty similar to the process in this video though I use ginger ale and panko instead of Sprite and cornmeal.
Hope yall enjoy
Ummm. That was a bluegill...or Brim as they call them down south. That was not a perch.
In Texas all bluegill/bream species are sometimes called perch. Not like the yellow perch of the north. It is just a different geographical way of referring to a fish species.
For me I love a cast iron pan fried walleye nothing better than that lol
You make me so hungry, and some good memories ! This is why? I share my stuff with you. If i pass them on, they live for ever. For other people to enjoy, like i do. God Bless you Kent.
Lol....@9:15...don't mast the "ever living snot" out of them. I love it. 🤣
Great video! Crappie are the Best! Wish I had some. You can only get them if you catch them or know someone who fishes. I always just coat my fish in regular mustard, then dunk it in the dry ingredients. Thanks so much for the video Kent! Love from Memphis!
Love the blast from the TV past. My late father taught me to fish at an early age; I passed it on to my daughter. She, in turn, taught her children (my grandchildren)! Same with gardening, except it was my maternal grandfather who taught me. Enjoyed the fish fry. I'll have to try that!
We primarily bake our fish (primarily the saltwater variety - I have never lived more than 45 minutes away from salt water), occasionally grilling in summer, along with making fish soup/stew.
When I can, I will prepare halászlé, the spicy Hungarian fish soup (uses HOT Hungarian paprika, one of my go-to spices), in a hanging pot (bogrács) over an open fire outdoors. I can almost smell it as I type this! Thank you again!
now that does sound good
@@CowboyKentRollins An interesting cultural note: bogrács cooking, both halászlé & gulyás (goulash, another summer favorite) is part of the Hungarian cowboy (csikósok) culture on the Great Plain of Hungary (puszta) on the European end of the great Eurasian steppe.
Yellow perch from Saginaw bay in Lake Huron.
