wrote Most people consider Mullet to be "trash fish" but it was long a staple food for poor people along the N FL coast. Generally, it is eaten fried along with Hushpuppies and cheesegrits and Cole Slaw washed down with iced tea. Mullet is generally caught in nets and not on hooks. Mullet roe is considered a delicacy by some but I wont touch it. My policy on seafood restaurants is that if they consider themselves too classy to serve fried mullet, I wont eat there because the seafood is probably imported. My brother in law started to fry mullet for Thanksgiving a few yrs ago and we all think its better than having turkey. He always has plenty cuz he knows how to throw a cast net. Porpoises love to eat mullet too. I've stood on a bridge and watched a pod of porpoises round up a school of mullet. They circle around and slap their tails and get the school of fish compacted in the middle. Then one at a time they will break from the circle and dart into the school and grab a mullet or two. I even saw one porpoise toss a mullet up in the air and gulp it down like popcorn or a mini-snickers bar. Looked like he was really having some fun... Cheers, Ellen Yeah...right...you mean you turned on the tv and watched a National Geographic special... |
