3 of the Hughes kids got to take a much needed little trip away with their papa. They took a guided fishing trip to catch striped bass and came back with a ton of fish. They enjoyed the time spent away making memories with their papa and a little competition on who could catch the most. I’m so Thankful they had such a great time and had that experience during these crazy times.

With all the fish they caught and their excitement to eat what the caught. I wanted to share with you one of my favorite fish batter recipes. This recipe can be used on many types of fish. If you ever get the chance to try striped bass. I highly recommend it. It is just a clean tasting white meat and when fried with the right batter. Is absolutely delicious!

How to make homemade beer batter
- Mix flour, salt, paprika, baking powder and corn starch together
- Add beer and mix
- Mixture should be thick, like pancake batter
- If mixture becomes too thick, add a bit more beer
- If mixture is too runny, add a bit more flour
You can use any type of beer you like for this recipe. I tend to stay away from a heavy strong tasting beer. If you would like to not use beer. You can use a sparkling water in its place. I also find that frying fish in corn oil is the best.
