Red Mullet form groups of up to twelve or more fish. It is best to try catch them early July in calm weather with just light winds. There is no specialised tackle required to catch Red Mullet, other than an HRF or light spinning rod. Since they are caught off shore the best technique to catch Red Mullet is obviously from a boat. You should make yourself familiar with the terrain and inform yourself where schools of Red Mullet have been spotted in the area before heading out. You should fish with the tide, let the boat float and let a little line off every half minute in order to keep the fish interested and stimulated. Because Red Mullet swim in Schools, so once you have one of them on the hook you have a good chance of catching more. Bite sequences are composed of two or three rapid rattles. Release a little line to let the fish eat the bait. Now, just let the line tighten into the fish and set the hook. Be careful when working feathers or shrimp rigs, as red mullet are tight on the seabed. Be sure not to lift the rod tip too high when working feathers. It's not necessary to lift more than a few inches. It's better to use the lightest lead weight possible since bigger leads will scare off red mullet.
