Brown bag sheepshead recipe

The first step in all fish recipes is get out and catch some. After you are successful fillet the sheepshead, bone it and cut into 1 inch cubes. From there you want to use some sort of spicy mustard(I prefer http://www.zatarains.com/Products/Condiments-and-Sauces/Creole-Mustard.aspx). Whatever mustard you choose it may need to be thinned out a bit with some beer. Pour these contents into a mixing bowl. Then use a couple of cups of flour in another mixing bowl. All measurements depend on how much fish you have. The mustard should be to cover and you should have just enough flour to coat the fish. Now dredge the fish in the flour then in the mustard then back to the flour. Seasoning the flour is up to you. I like just salt and pepper but don't stop there(just remember a little at a time don't over season). From there drop the fish into preheated 350 degree oil and fry till floating or golden brown. When fish is done, double up some paper lunch bags to put the fish into. Now crack a beverage of your choice and pass the bags or bags around for everyone to enjoy.
