Hi Jeff,
Here in NZ it's high summer and I have started to fish the tidal reaches of the Avon and Heathcote rivers fot Mullet.
These resemble dace and the average is 1 to 2 lb and fight like demons and are well worth the effort.
They bite extremely fast and only on paste or flake. to date I have fished a short hook link (12 in.)and miss 11 out of 12 bites; longer links do not seem to register at all using feeded methods.
At the start we tried longtrotting with some success but constantly changing depths and flow make life frustrating except at low tide when the flow is constant.
Any hints would be appreciated,
Tony
