a very small single hook as mullet have small mouths
the length depends on the dept of water 6- 18 " i find works best

A size 8 kamasan match coarse hook will be perfect for bread. Try to get an inline carp float. They are easier to set up that the standard shore float. A bubble will do if you can't find them. Clear wagglers will also work if you need to sink the bait a little.

Kev

I've just used size 2 hooks, and no float. Just let the hook with the bread float on the top.

Size 8 hook, try not to use a bubble float as it creates a bigger splash which can spook the mullet.

thanks lads,,,these are so tricky and never caught one,,,,so gonna try it,,,need a big fish to get my fishing season off and going

your uncle jimmy told me to try cheese when i was in killala 2 years ago, i never got a mullet on it but one of the other lads did using a a few spilt shots and 18inches of flurocarbon line down were jimmy launches the boat u never no

aye theres some fine ones around the harbour alright but they venture then when the tide rises,,,,was gonna try it this evening but its gone very dull here,,,,jimmy is doing alright fishing wise too dan,,,gettin nice species,,,,,6 weeks ago he had a 32lb conger,,,,,i was suppose to go today but then couldnt but i defo will next week,,,,,if yourself and the club are down this year give me a buzz,,,we might have a day or night on the shore

i use a 3ft hook lenght of 6lbs flurocarbon size 8 or 10 coarse fishing hook and a small bubble half full of water . kepp feeding em with bread they will come on the feed all of a sudden for 20 mins or so . some people just keep feeding and won't make a cast at em until they see the mullet taking the free offerings , my two cents

after norway and a weekend in downings dont think the club will venture down this year. might see if couple of the lads fancy some shore fishing down that way lovely part of the world does maria still run the wee b&b

only seen maria there with the kids and there kayaks there 2 hours ago,,,shes doin ok,,,seems to have a few anyway,,,,ya the fishing is costly game alright,,,,ah sure we might try organise something around donegal later in the month or so,,,
