As others have mentioned more corn meal and less flour soaks up less oil and Andy's is mostly cornmeal. A very light breading with a mild spicy flavor. There are some other's that are good but do prefer a cornmeal based breading over a flour breading. For me most beer batter type breadings are too much breading and not enough fish. To each his own I guess.I also like to put fried fish on a screen or` before putting on paper towels as more oil will drip off instead of on the paper towels used for serving. For me I think the temperature of the oil is very important as it seems if the oil isn't hot enough the breading will soak up more oil. For those of you who use and egg wash, have you ever tried using just the egg whites? Read one time that the yolk is more fat than the whites so the yolk causes the fish to absorb more oil. Tried it one time and I think it's true but don't use egg washes much anymore, just a little buttermilk, so can't say for sure.Do prefer fried fish but also sometimes feel guilty about the fried part and have cooked some pretty good fish on the grill with just some different spices and sauces. In my experience, if it sounds good, it will probably make the fish very flavorful on the grill. Experiment and I'm pretty sure you will find another way to eat fish. Especially a good way when you're only cooking for a couple or a few people. Frying a big batch fish is fun for a social gathering but too much work for my just wife and I. For me I prefer just about anything that will add some spicy flavor.</blockquote>

Verification: What is the most common fish caught on this site?
