HOW TO CATCH MULLET - On PERCH FISHING gear!

I'm back on salt water and we look at how to catch mullet on my perch fishing gear! If you love your perch fishing and sometimes find yourself near the coast then YOU'VE GOT TO TRY THIS! You might be on holiday or on a short break, either way using you lure rod with spinners can catch you some incredible fish. I'm mullet fishing in christchurch harbour and the spinning techniques for mullet are quite different to how we're used to fishing with lures, but the rewards are there and it's great to learn something new in your fishing.
The mullet is such an incredible looking fish and they fight extremely hard. They are known to be quite tricky to catch, but these tactics do well, especially for the thin lip mullet.
Thanks as always for checking out the video. Please don't forget to subscribe!

    Not the Thin Lip, as caught here. But the Thick Lip Mullet, are the hardest fighting fish, pound for pound, in European waters. It's odd though, as the Thins go much better than shown here, if you get them on the float with bread.

    Funnily enough I’ve just watched Tom from Christchurch Angling mullet spinning on what looks like exactly the same stretch. I must make the journey one day, it looks like brilliant fun.

    I spent some time bobbing up and down in Port Stanley Harbour a few years back. There was a strange fish there that the locals called Mullet. We spun for them but tipped the hook with fillet steak!.. they were very obliging :)

    I spent many hours as a kid watching mullet follow my spinners but never take them! The only way I ever caught them was with a tiny blob of cheese - plastic rag worm seems very effective. Great video.

    Thanks! Seems like a real bit of rag is even more effective, but do rate the isome fake rag 👍👍👍

    Cheers mate. I was advised that the pennel keeps the isome worm ‘straight’, but did wonder if a single would be enough. 👍

    Welcome to the UK bone fish equivalent sort of....some anglers Have a blind spot with how to tackle these fish ....did not expect you to be one of them...thick lippers fight even harder I would say... ..scale on hook indicates foul hook contact..with a scaled fish...

    Yep, it’s been an eye opener. Most of my angling has been fresh water so it’s good to be learning lots of new techniques on salt water. Ever managed to get a thick lip to take a spinner?

    No but it may be possible....free lining or light ledgering or waggler float the latter being very effective with long medium action rod ... depending on location

    Hi. Your video is excellent! With this kind of retrieve (medium/slow) your lure is moving near the bottom, near the surface, one meter down the surface? Where (in depth) usually we could find mullets with spinning? Changing the retrieve up and down or using a heavier lure would change a bad day to a succesful one? Thank you very much.

    I'm guessing that where you missed the fish and had a scale on the hook it had probably hit the spinner rather than the trailer?

    Exactly what I was thinking. Next year I might compare the straight spinner to this rig over a few sessions 👍
