The Duncan Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Good luck with the grey mullet from the harbour - in my experience they are not shy to swim around feeding, but are crazily loathe to take bait. They look like a really good eating fish too Cheers Duncan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oscarsdad Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 I second the advice on WSF - I have been on there for years and it is a great site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acid House Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Mullet are very bait shy. Use small hooks and make a small Cornish pastie of bread around the hook so the hook is the filling. They taste a bit muddy to me but good with a sauce or curried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
