Lots of good-sounding recipes here. We mix a dry blend of salt, white pepper, and paprika and sprinkle fillets before going in white cornmeal. We have used Young's Catfish seasoning meal before and like it too. We used to pull up to a local Young's Catfish place drive thru and they would sell you a 5 lb bag right out the window!

Serious question- why put mustard on crappie? I could understand a strong-flavored fish like catfish or white bass, but crappie are so clean and sweet, I would think mustard would overwhelm.

I use mustard on all the fish I fry as well as chicken. It holds the flour/meal really good. Funny thing is you don't taste the mustard at all once they are fried.

Floured, egg bathed, seasoned panko, melted butter then broiled. Pork chops receive the same treatment.
