Whisker Seeker All-Purpose Fish Fry Breading Mix | Premium Catfish & Panfish Coating

After 15 years of revolutionizing catfish tackle, Whisker Seeker Tackle brings that same obsession with quality to your fish fryer. Our all-purpose Fish Fry Breading Mix is built for catfish, but it shines on crappie, bluegill, walleye, perch, bass, and more. We tested countless fish fry products and none met our standards—so we created our own. This seasoned cornmeal breading delivers restaurant-quality, crispy fillets right in your kitchen or at the camp.

Our premium cornmeal and corn flour blend, combined with a proprietary mix of spices, creates the perfect golden, crunchy coating that locks in moisture and flavor. Whether you’re frying blue catfish, channel catfish, flathead catfish, or a cooler full of mixed species, this southern-style fish breading keeps every fillet light, crispy, and clean-tasting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this breading only for catfish?
No. While it was developed to be the ultimate catfish breading, this is an all-purpose fish fry mix. It works great on catfish, crappie, bluegill, walleye, perch, bass, and most other freshwater and saltwater fish.

Is this the best catfish breading mix for air fryers?
Yes. Our breading creates a crispy coating in air fryers, deep fryers, skillets, and ovens. Just lightly oil your basket or pan and cook until the coating is golden and crunchy.

What makes this different from store brands?
Most store-bought fish breading mixes are either too salty or too bland. Our mix uses premium cornmeal, restaurant-quality seasoning, and a recipe developed by anglers who know what great catfish and panfish should taste like.

Is it spicy?
The Original blend has a mild, classic fish fry flavor that most families and kids enjoy. The Cajun blend adds more kick without overpowering the taste of your fish.
