Mullet as Fish Bait: Mullet are quite important to fly fishing. Often, mullet group along beaches and in estuaries before heading out to sea to mature.
Like other bait, they form tight schools when pursued by game fish, and sometimes they leap from the water. They are unmistakable because every fish in a school pokes its rounded snout in the air in an attempt to offer less target to marauding game fish.
When you cast a mullet imitation, retrieve it with a steady 8- to 12-inch strip. Use flies 2 to 5 inches long, in white, gray, green, or brown.
