  • On a very tough day on England's South Coast mullet on the fly legends Paul Jennings and Joe Walker take us out into a harbour to demonstrate the methods and discuss the reasons why you should get into mullet on the fly.

    we have mullets they are big maybe 4 to 5+ pound they jump like crazy one time one almost jump in my kayak tricky to catch not sure what fly is best.. we also have bone fish and other nice game fish mixed in bonito,sea bass,halibut,bass ect.... any recommendation on why color or type of fly/lure to use ? ours seem to be the thick lip and looks like they have stripes on the side and eat green algae grass or something, they come in the tides and make their way to the shallows to like eat and head back out in the bay, ive snag one but it dont count and holy cow they have some running power very strong

    Hi Joe,
    Have never done any fly fishing for Mullet but would love to try it.
    Found your video’s very entertaining and informative.
    I note you mentioned the make etc of the road you were using
    However I would be grateful if you’ll tell me the make etc of your line and
    Reel…..I fully appreciate how important it is to use Saltwater Gear.
    Finally I live in the Midlands ( England).
    I note you fish also in South Wales.
    Can you tell me anywhere in Wales I could do
    Mullet Flt Fishing similar to what you are doing in the video.
    Keep producing the video’s…..Very informative..
    Tight Lines……👍👍👍

      Join the Mullet on the Fly Facebook group and connect with Joe there. He used an Orvis Hydes iii reel from memory, no idea about the line but possibly an Orvis.

    Entertaining and informative video on mullet fly fishing - still looking to adapt some of the UK experience to down here in New Zealand on our Grey Mullet. Keep it coming!

    18 years or so ago I was SWFFing for bass in The Marsh there on a Charlie Clouser but honestly never thought of the mullet there. Shall have to go back home sometime and have a go! Great vid!

      I'm hopefully out this summer to film again as it was a bad tide and only small fish turned up. Enough to get the video done mind.

    Great video, for flyline you use floating or a slow intermediate line, what would you advise?

    • @flyfishinglondoner
      @flyfishinglondoner  6 місяців тому +1

      Always use a floating line with mullet as you're generally mostly fishing very shallow water.

    Would the shrimp under bung method work for Cardiff bay freshwater mullet ?

    Reels do nothing (IMHO)... except just hold the line. Not necessary at all (ask the Romans (horse hair)). Crikey... start with spotting the target... nice cast... tapered leader (braided), a fly that looks like a bit of rag worm... . Having said that... mullet on the fly - well done sir. Well done.

      Reel is pretty useful when the fish does a 50 meter run ...

      Yeah, I can see that... runs on my fly section are from one bank to the other and back again - if I'm lucky.
