4. Coat in mustard/hot sauce
5. Dredge in seasoning

Maybe a little butter milk with the hot sauce in that....

Looks good. I don't coat in mustard. But that is personal preference I guess. I'm sure there is a scientific reason for the ice bath? I just open the package, rinse and pat dry with a paper towel. I give them a buttermilk bath instead of mustard.

My mix is 50/50 Zatarain's fish fry and plain cornmeal.

Ever thin cut them? then cut into nuggets? yum but you can't go wrong with how you're doing it

But i do a beer liquid with a little mustard....trout don't need mustard IMO

make sure your oil is plenty hot, and I agree with the 50/50 mix of cornmeal and fish fry

Are you guys talking about regular yellow mustard or Creole mustard?

I am pretty much a KISS person regarding frying any kind of trout. A very simple dusting with seasoned flour is all it needs, none of the dredging in anythine else. A rainbow in a bag of seasoned flour and then into a pan with a bit of butter is a most delicious thing. Fileted specks chopped into little bite sized morsels done the same way then deep fried is fantastic.
