Make sure you stock up on Dan's worm flies and some Disco shrimps.

One of my three mullet from the day:



This one was just over 40cm, but not measured. The grip is 20cm long.

Awesome fish and great to see it caught too
I’m still sooking at the boat haha
Well done glad some thing good come of the morning

Nice one Graeme, what did you get the mullet on?

Thanks Dee.

The "fly" was an unweighted dark red chenille worm. Perhaps mimicking a small worm swimming through the water. ("Fly" because it's just a piece of chenille tied on a hook - about as simple as it gets.)

Cheers,
Graeme
