I had a crack at that salt and vinegar crumb a little while ago. Whilst nice I didn't fall in love with it enough to do it every time.

For me my favorite recipe for small fish like whiting, flatty is as follows.

Make an egg bath in a bowl 2-3 eggs
Get a freezer bag. Put in 3/4cup of both self raising and plain flour.
Add a tablespoon (roughly) of freshly cracked salt and pepper

Wash fillets and dry on paper towel.
Put fillets in freezer bag to dust with flour for the egg bath.
Place them in egg bath.
Put fillets 2-3 at a time back into freezer bag. Shake well. Put coated fillets in plate
Heat up a large shallow dish with about 2cm deep canola oil
Wait until ready very hot. Place fillets in. Cook till golden brown on both sides
Serve with potato gems. Fresh salad. Tartare and lime wedges.

Alternative which I do with gummy a bit.

Clean and dry fillet on paper towel, very lightly dust fillets with plain flour. Get a large plate. Crack a good amount of black pepper and sea salt onto plate. Places fillets on plate. Coat top in more salt and pepper. Get a few knobs of butter and cook on BBQ. Placing a knob of butter next to the fillets as they cook as the previous one cooks away. You end with a beautiful creamy buttery coating on the fillets.

We are actually in the process of doing a TV series, similar to Housos! Our series is going to be called Sheppos! Here is the 'Salt & Vinegar' link if anyone is interested.
