Pour buttermilk in a medium bowl. Add catfish nuggets to buttermilk and soak for 20 minutes. Drain catfish.

Add egg, milk and pepper into a shallow bowl and whisk until mixed. Place flour in another shallow dish. Place crushed pretzels in a third shallow dish.

Heat oil over medium high heat in a large skillet.

Coat nuggets with flour. Dip into the egg, mixture then into the crushed pretzels. Add catfish to hot oil and cook 4 to 5 minutes or until golden and fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Place nuggets on a paper towel lined plate to drain any grease.
