From the edge
Like many fish, the mullet is found in areas where it will find a lot of food. This means ports, estuaries and rivers, rocky points where the biotope is important or mudflats.
The mullet has often been mistakenly considered as a dirty fish, with filthy flesh that is useless to fish. It is actually quite the opposite, its flesh is tender and delicate and it is a fish that fights like few others on the west side. It's just an extremely suspicious fish and it must have upset a lot of fishermen who have tried it.
In marinas
During spring and summer, the mullet is found on the coast and one of the mullet's favorites places is the port. The mullet is a fish that is often found below the surface between 0 and 10m deep. It finds food in the mud and under the pontoons filled with algae in the harbors. So when you wander through the ports at this time of year, you are almost certain to see mullet s hanging around on the surface or under boats. However, it should be noted that the mullet is far from being an easy fish to catch. It is indeed very suspicious and has a very small mouth. This limits the chances of catches.
These are the different fishing techniques that you can use:
- Jig fishing
- Lure fishing
- Support fishing
- Fly fishing
On the rocky points
On some rocky points, the biotope may be very suitable for mullet s. They find algae, small crustaceans and mollusks. The mullet is a surface fish, so you will spot it before fishing. If they're there, you'll see them! This is also what can be frustrating in this fishery because you can see many fish and go home empty-handed. In order to put all the chances on your side, approach the places very discreetly.
