| had someone tell he caught some 'brown mullet' off sykes bridge. Since I know mullet won't eat bait, what the heck is he talking about? Anyone know what this might be?

| Ground mullet and whiting are two different species. Ground mullet are really southern kingfish and usually have a mottled appearance while whiting AKA gulf kingfish are a sandy color with white bellies and silvery sides and often have a black tip on their tail. You here tourists call whiting sand sharks a lot on the beach.

Anyone know what this might be?not to de-rail, but if you use a #6 bream hook and some canned corn you can tear up the mullet. great fun for the kids! i think whiting are very good to eat as well.

| "Brown Mullet" may be a close kin to the popular "Brown Trout". A very common catch at the discharge of the local sewage treatment plant.

Gulf kingfish are caught as far north as Virginia, I caught 2 last season, not bad tasting but full of bones. Up there they call them roundheads.

That is probably my favorite fish to eat (although I have yet to try pompano so I'll reserve judgement until then, I hear you guys praising pompano a lot in the forum so I can't wait to try some).

| I use to work on the Pensacola Fishing Pier and i recall on several occasions where we caught several chicken dolphins. I remember one time about 13 of them came through all together. I hooked one, chickenbone, j hogue and couple others. It was a blast because it had been slow all day except for the pomps.

Back in the mid 80's, around St Marks, we used to catch Dolphin (Mahi) in the 18-24in range when the grass beds would blow in. We werent more than a few hundred yards off the beach.
