This one even gets the fish nay sayers to 
... fast, easy , TASTY !
Most important when filet the striper after removing the skin from the filets to trim ALL of the red meat from the skin side of the filet. Cut the filets into small pices about 2/3 inch thick and place in bowl of slightly salted water.
Mix 1 cup flour and 1 cup into a gallon sized zip lock freezer bag . Add 1 tsp. of Johhnys season salt, 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder and 1/4 tsp garlic powder to the flour meal mix and shake well. double or triple this mix if doing larger amounts of fish.
In a large skillet pour cooking oil of your choice appx 1/4 inch deep accross the bottom of the pan and put on a medium hi heat until it is good and hot.
While the oil is heating drain the water from the fish chunks and leave them wet but not dripping wet. Take a good handful of the fish chunks , add them to the bag and shake well. Remove them from the bag and spread them out on wax paper or cookie sheet seperated from each other until all are coated.
add as many pieces as possibble to the skillet without them touching and turn them once per side appx 1 1/2 minute per side for moister flakey middles or 2 minites per side for a more crispy finish which the fish nay sayers and the kids seem to prefer . Remove from skillet and place on a plate or baking sheet covered with paper towels for appx. 2 minutes and serve with your favorite dipping sauce ( or not ) and side dish ( if any ). My kids had to have tater tots ( go figger ). Enjoy !!!
