Knew this was going to be a good video from the start. When I was young and my dad took us fishing, he told us: "Boys, if you want to really learn how to fish, always talk to and hang out with the fellows you see on the bank with buckets. You will learn more from them about catching fish than you will from anyone out here in a fancy boat." :)

Brings back great memories ! My Dad and uncle used to take me there when I was a very young boy and we fished for mullet right under the Hwy 19 bridge doing the same thing. We would use a zip pole with 3 hooks on it. Fun times.

Great video! I mullet fish this way too! I’m 1 of the only young people left who do it apparently. I actually knew a guy in Yankeetown who was a phenomenal fisherman. He took me when I was a youngun and he was fishing strictly with lures at a time when people didn’t go fishing without live bait for backup if nothing else, with baitcasters before they had antibacklash technology and he always caught whatever we were fishing for. He was that good.

I didn't catch anything.... hated that fishing)))) never again lol. much better to just use live shrimp and get bites rather then white plastic.... also I hated that my hands were dirty all the time and I could not throw that chicked feed far enough. I was fishing at Ozello Trail and I saw a lot of mullet there before but this time they were not biting.. anyway I am not sure how you got so many mullet. It looked much easier in your video...

Chris, great video. Did you use the mash dry or did add a liquid? I use to throw a cast net for them when I lived in Clearwater. I’m in Dunnellon now and have been buying mullet over at Charlies in Crystal River to smoke. I want to try this from my Kayak. Thanks and keep the Videos coming. Ron
@KayakChris
@KayakChris 6 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the comment Ron, I carry the dry mash down to the bank and THEN add water to it. Just enough that it sticks together in a ball. You could get away with the same rig but 1 hook on a dedicated rod. I use a pocket fisherman on the yak. I always see thick schools of mullet out there paddling. Chuck a ball of mash and throw the mini rig out into them, boom you'd get a mullet I bet. If you can find a small enough circle hook that would also help your hook up ratio if you are using a short bait pole since you can't "snatch" the line as effectively on a short rod. Good luck and let me know how it goes!

I find your video description kinda disrespectful. Mullet are great fighters pound per pound and can reach 10+ pounds and yet you seem to think they are just a good beginner fish like bluegill. If you would have used appropriate sized tackle for the small mullet you were catching instead of using oversized tackle and just horsing them in, you would have realised this.
