Interesting piece, Mark. Like you, I've read about the technique and have seen the John Wilson programme, and like you I was inspired to give it a try for my local Medway thinlips. I tried unbaited mini-Mepps and baited versions on light spinning tackle, and streamer-flies on fly tackle - all without a single take, pluck or follow. I suspected the lack of interest on the part of the mullet was due to their low numbers in the river (we get nothing like the shoals that show in and around Christchurch Harbour, for example). In truth, my lack of belief and commitment doubtless played a part, too (I didn't persevere).
Inspired by your article and experiences, I plan to try again.
