Originally a Friday tradition, fish fries have become a way of life in Wisconsin. William A. Davidson and William S. Harley were certainly looking forward to a feast back in 1923 after they scored big-time at a local fishing hole. One taste of our recipe and you’ll think it’s the best in town. And that’s no fish story.
