Re: strangford mullet are back
We're definitely gonna try for the mullet this year. I've found a spot that looks very fishy with the potential for both mullet & flatties (& seatrout hopefully!).
There's lots of ducks in the area and a public carpark & walkway so hopefully the mullet will already be weaned onto bread that the ducks haven't scoffed.

Re: strangford mullet are back
A few Mullett now coming up the canal into Ards. These warmer days seem to be doing the trick. Will start baiting from tonight with the net bag.
