I've been eating my bait for years I'm 69 years old and I don't know how many times I brought my bait home and ate it I have to totally agree there are no trash fish just trash cooks you guys rock..
Tip for cooking bok choy, separate the stem and the leaf. The leaf cooks much faster than the stem. So they end up wilted by the time the stems are done. Throw the stems in with the ginger and garlic, then throw the leaves in near the end and just toss around for about a minute.
Mullets are my favorite,grilled wrapped in banana leaves.I normally use chopped tomatoes,onions and ginger.When almost done unwrapped to brown and done almost like smoked,besides mullet gizzard taste good too.
Trash cooks will always say something is a trash fish because they don’t know how to cook it. Mullet has been eaten for thousands of years I’m glad you showed a fantastic way to cook it!
Mullet is delicious! I didn't know what I was missing out on. This past summer we got skunked and happened to roll up on some horrse mullet on our way back to the boat ramp. Caught maybe a couple dozen and did the same. Salt pepper and Cayenne pan fried they are delicious. By far one of the best "trash/bait" fish I've ever eaten.
I love the drone footage!!! I didn't know it was like that even tho you have said what was going on, but to actually see that...wow! You could do just an only drone footage video because you have a special knack for catching the best shots! I love seeing you fish as well
Aloha Viktor, You probably already know what I'm going to say, but here in Hawai'i Mullet are considered a delicacy. We always eat then whole scaled and cleaned. and we usually steam them or wrap them in the leaf of the Ti (Cordyline fruticosa) plant and bake them. If you can find them at a local nursery you should get some and plant them around your home. There large leaf is great for wrapping and cooking things in as well as making great disposable plates. Hawaiians used to the the large sugar rich root ball of this plant, and boil it down, let it ferment, then distill into a potent hard liquor called "Okolehao (oh-koh-leh-ha-o). For steaming the mullet can be placed in a steamer with sliced onions, and shiitake mushrooms, and before serving put a handful of chopped green onions and cilantro on top, then pour some hot peanut oil on top right before serving for great presentation, and flavor. Aloha a hui hou.
Filipino's eat them all the time. They are especially good smoked! Another is just butterfly smaller mullet and pan fry it. Prepare a vinegar, garlic and salt dip with a few hot thai chillies. Eat the whole thing. Crunch like pork rinds. Yumm
I grew up in Niceville. Florida, where every year, there is a Mullet Festival. I've been eating mullet for 40 plus years. When cook correctly, they are extremely tasty fish.
Finally the mullet I've been wanting you guys yo try lol. Glad to see you guys liked it, my dad before leaving Sicily and bringing us here to the states use to love to catch and eat mullet. Another great video guys keep up the great work 😁
Mullet is the best fried with lil salt and pepper leave skin on batter and fry..smoked also,butterfly leave scales on salt pepper and smoke scale side down... born and raised on mullet over here on the west coast.. keep the vids coming love them
scale them, debone them, cut them in chunks, and deep fry them in 50/50 flour and cornmeal. Been eating them that way for over 35 years on the west coast of FL.
Yes. I was about to say that. Mullets live in inner waters: rivers and lagoons and they eat algae. That makes their meat to have a not so good taste. When they begin their run is due to their reproduction time. They go to the salty water get cleaned up. That makes them taste great. So, you have to get them in the ocean, preferably 200 miles from where they started their run.
Back here in North Carolina, I was taught by my grandma to charcoal em. Take a charcoal grill, and just grill em butterflied. Keep the scales on, and you pick the meat out from the bones - there’s a lot of bones in em. Pinfish/pigfish the same way - except just head gut scale and grill Over a open flame. Sweetest meat around..
You can actually prepare this fish by deep frying it. The ingredients contain yellow corn meal,old bay, onion powder, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Also if you catch the ones with the egg roll in them you can also eat them as well the yellow ones and the white ones. Yellow being female, white being males. You can use Tabasco sauce for spicy flavor.
Last time i was in Florida a got 3 all 15" plus mullet in the cast net... I decided to fillet 1.. They stank... Cooked with butter, garlic, some old bay, salt and pepper.. I got 2 bites in and tossed it. Never again. The other 2 and scraps of tbe first was pro blacktip bait though. Only use i can imagine for a mullet after my first taste.

This lagoon is beautiful, it has big fish, your fishing was amazing you caught a lot of fish, congratulations you are a great fisherman!👍🎣😎
I so wish I knew where this was, but I understand it’s a very amazing spot, to post it on TH-cam would be giving it to SO MANY people, therefore, it would be overwhelmed.
Mullet fish have always been a good fish to eat, they have been in the local fish markets here in North Carolina for decades, how does anyone who fishes as much as Landshark does could miss that known fact
That was some awesome footage of all the mullet along the beaches they were so thick I think you could have walked on them. I eat mullet all the time smoked, and fried they are really good! I have noticed that the closer they are to the ocean the better they taste. More salt, less brackish the better they taste!
Everybody: yup it’s good Brook: HONESTLY THIS IS REALLY GOOD 🧢 Everybody else was not excited as she was plus the dad is he 1 always happy his time he was a lil down
Bro fried mullet is one of my favorite fish to eat try it with just some salt and pepper lightly dusted with either flour or cornmeal deep fried. All the old school people were raised on mullet so was I all the restaurants around my area in central Brevard county used to serve mullet some still do. Another good way is to butterfly and scale it put old Bay seasoning lightly flour and deep fry with the bones in the skin on.
They beach hall our bull mullet here on the East coast of NSW Australia halls are up to 8tone at a time , just for the roe it exported to Japan and they are paid a huge prise and body of the fish I think is used
Up here in Pensacola we fry them! Oh and don't throw away the backbone roll it in cornmeal and everglades original drop it in some hot peanut oil, best part of the fish.
We eat them all the time up here in NC. They are definitely way better in the cleaner saltier water closer to the inlets, the ones you catch up the rivers and creeks tend to taste like the mud they are filtering and are hardly edible, but if you go out in the sounds and get them where theres good sandy bottom and clean salty water they are hard to beat in my honest opinion.
Hey vic, how is it that you do all the work to get the fish, clean them and then cook them, and your in-laws show up and get a dinner out of it. Seems there job is being a good tester. Can I apply for the job?. Lol keep up the good work you do.
Cool. Fun fact: Years ago a judge actually ruled that the mullet was a bird and not a fish because it has a gizzard instead of a stomach. Had something to do with the commercial fishery if I remember correctly. Of course the ruling was overturned
I saw the plate and the sauce and was like DAYUM! THATS A BIG ASS EGG😂🙆♂️ "highly edible" had me wheezing! Great vid... just found your channel... New sub!😆🤙
Mullet is also a historical fish they are found in many waters of the world an have been a massive part of cultures an diets world wide i belive they were made refrence to in the bible also they were used to feed troops in wars and indians taught spanish an english settlers to catch them for food and fertalizers for crops to flourish for years i have done well catching them for food an for income for my family thank you for bringing light to the mighty mullet
Here in south texas when we talk about mullet we are referring to finger mullet so I was pretty surprised when you brought out those pretty big fish lol
I'm from the South Carolina Gullah County " WE been trynna tell yall dis for years. Where I'm from mullet is a delicacy. We salt & cold smoke em in our smoke house or grill dem over pecan wood. Also make fish stew. Even deep fried with fries & cole slaw. Slap yo MOMMA GUD. I'm Gullah Geechie Proud.
A while back when I used to live in Florida on the Gulf Coast near Destin I never knew what mullet was until my mother told me about it well she told me about the Mullet Festival they have down there and I replied to her saying what is that a bunch of hillbillies with mullets that get together!?. LOL then a few friends of mine showed me how to use a cast net and from there on out I'd catch schools of mullet out there morning and evening right as the sun is starting to go down. I lived in Niceville that's a great area to go mullet fishing well with a cast net or anything at that matter
Cook that mullet with vinegar ginger salt and pepper with a greem chillies slow cook it and b4 finishing lastly add cooking oil . We called it here in the Philippines 🇵🇭 "PAKSIW"
some will argue that a mullet in not a fish but a fowl because it has a gizzard which is edible, there is a definite taste difference between mullet that lives or has been in river canal or bayou type water verse mullet living in sandy bottom areas like running the coast lines or open water ares
I've been eating my bait for years I'm 69 years old and I don't know how many times I brought my bait home and ate it I have to totally agree there are no trash fish just trash cooks you guys rock..

Mullet eggs(roe) are the best. Lightly flour with salt and pepper and pan fry. It’s amazing
Sorry 🤒🤮🤮🤮🤕. 🤣
Yeahh love it. I usualy make it with some chilli powder, salt nd pepper. And kinda cook over fire.
Also it has a kidney type thing too. Tastes really good
@@ahmedaiman5258 it's a gizzard. 😊
@@stevekeen1176 owh yeah thats what it is
Mullets are my favorite,grilled wrapped in banana leaves.I normally use chopped tomatoes,onions and ginger.When almost done unwrapped to brown and done almost like smoked,besides mullet gizzard taste good too.

Mullet is literally my favorite fish of all time fried in that zatarans stuff

scale them, debone them, cut them in chunks, and deep fry them in 50/50 flour and cornmeal. Been eating them that way for over 35 years on the west coast of FL.
Nice fishing sir
You will find that mullet caught over sandy bottom taste much better than muddy bottom fish.
Yes. I was about to say that.
Mullets live in inner waters: rivers and lagoons and they eat algae. That makes their meat to have a not so good taste.
When they begin their run is due to their reproduction time. They go to the salty water get cleaned up. That makes them taste great.

Buddy made that cast net throw look easy. Well done

Hands down best eating fish there is.

Also if you catch the ones with the egg roll in them you can also eat them as well the yellow ones and the white ones. Yellow being female, white being males.

Also add salt to taste along with black pepper. You can deep fry them in vegetable oil. The ingredients for the fish roe(roll) the mullet egg sacks.
I love the drone footage. Video camera to, but the drone footage is just awesome.
Happy to see chef Vic back in the kitchen. 👌
YESSS!!! My bf just asked me yesterday do people eat mullet. I just knew y'all would do a mullet video during the migration!
Mullet is some of the best eating fish you can get if prepared correctly. And it’s the best smoked when using button wood
Last time i was in Florida a got 3 all 15" plus mullet in the cast net... I decided to fillet 1.. They stank... Cooked with butter, garlic, some old bay, salt and pepper..

I agree with Viktor....all smoked fish tastes the same to me. This was a great video. I need to try mullet now!
I once got skunked and ended up pan frying the mullet at fishing spot on the back of my truck..delicious!
Great job you showed me a different way of cooking fish and other kinds of food
Drone footage at the beginning was epic!!
I’m glad that this video proofs that I’m not weird to eat mullet
im coming to juno in two weeks, hope the mullet are still here
im pretty sure they will still be there
They have a good chance of being there
It would be a happy new

Man smoked mullet dip or smoked mullet in general is the move man.
Smart man Viktor. Serving#1 big papa. Lol you'll get to keep Brooke happy. Lol
The damn guy makes Mullet look good smh... good shit Vic
That was some awesome footage of all the mullet along the beaches they were so thick I think you could have walked on them. I eat mullet all the time smoked, and fried they are really good!

Thats crazyy. The First canal you went down for mullet was my old canal. I could see my house
Bro fried mullet is one of my favorite fish to eat try it with just some salt and pepper lightly dusted with either flour or cornmeal deep fried. All the old school people were raised on mullet so was I all the restaurants around my area in central Brevard county used to serve mullet some still do. Another good way is to butterfly and scale it put old Bay seasoning lightly flour and deep fry with the bones in the skin on.
I was wondering when this vid would come out
Love your videos,please do one on the king of trash fish ,the common carp.I would love to see your cooking skills on carp.
I searched this video up and victor made it today that’s crazy
I live in the panhandle and we eat mullet all the time restaurants serve it too

They beach hall our bull mullet here on the East coast of NSW Australia halls are up to 8tone at a time , just for the roe it exported to Japan and they are paid a huge prise and body of the fish I think is used

Beautiful scenes from the drone. Next time try frying up the mullet roe. It's suppose to be super delicious and expensive.
We eat them all the time up here in NC. They are definitely way better in the cleaner saltier water closer to the inlets, the ones you catch up the rivers and creeks tend to taste like the mud they are filtering and are hardly edible, but if you go out in the sounds and get them where theres good sandy bottom and clean salty water they are hard to beat in my honest opinion.

I just wanna know when yours and Brooks wedding is!!!! Ty for teaching me basically everything I know about fishing and cooking!
Mullet are just fine and dandy, but I never tried a Ballyhoo, have you guys?
Speaking of Asian recipes, next time try Lemongrass, Victor. It's like a holy grail of the trinity in Creole cooking.
Cool. Fun fact: Years ago a judge actually ruled that the mullet was a bird and not a fish because it has a gizzard instead of a stomach. Had something to do with the commercial fishery if I remember correctly. Of course the ruling was overturned

Mullet is one of the most underrated fish. deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelish
I fish fr mullet in back waters and catch sum double the size you have to look for the big schools
In the south of Brazil between may and june we always have this mullet run, but they get really big here up to 5-8 pounds. It's a delicious fish!
A great video again Viktor 👏...thanks.
Do you think that the ocean mullet would taste better than the river mullet?
So what about Ballyhoo catch clean and cook?
Mullet is also a historical fish they are found in many waters of the world an have been a massive part of cultures an diets world wide i belive they were made refrence to in the bible also they were used to feed troops in wars and indians taught spanish an english settlers to catch them for food and fertalizers for crops to flourish for years i have done well catching them for food an for income for my family thank you for bringing light to the mighty mullet
I’ve always wanted to try mullet
Catch scale filet cut the bones out seasond with Louisiana fish fry make some cheese grits hushpuppies and Cole slaw and you've got a damn fine meal
smoked mullet is by far the best
with salt and brown sugar
try it honestly you'll love it
Do you ever get "Pen Shelled" clams where you are at in Florida?
The amount of bait pilled up like that?! Insane, never seen anything like that
Here in south texas when we talk about mullet we are referring to finger mullet so I was pretty surprised when you brought out those pretty big fish lol
Saltwater caught mullet are one of the best eating fish
I'm from the South Carolina Gullah County " WE been trynna tell yall dis for years. Where I'm from mullet is a delicacy. We salt & cold smoke em in our smoke house or grill dem over pecan wood. Also make fish stew. Even deep fried with fries & cole slaw. Slap yo MOMMA GUD. I'm Gullah Geechie Proud.
I love mullet! Being from Mississippi, it is a staple fish. Please try it butterflied, leaving the belly and smoked..delicious.
Would the meat come out lighter if you bleed it first ?
Like that drone footage intro
Looks awesome bro.
A while back when I used to live in Florida on the Gulf Coast near Destin I never knew what mullet was until my mother told me about it well she told me about the Mullet Festival they have down there and I replied to her saying what is that a bunch of hillbillies with mullets that get together!?.

MULLET is one of my favourite fish of all to eat
The young lady said a mouthful!!
Cook that mullet with vinegar ginger salt and pepper with a greem chillies slow cook it and b4 finishing lastly add cooking oil . We called it here in the Philippines 🇵🇭 "PAKSIW"
Poaching in water with a roughly cut brown onion and vinegar and a TSP of salt is great the mullet retains its fat and flavour
Recommend to try the Thai style fish port with hole mullet.
smoked mullet is delicious also try smoking the roe and eating it it is the best caviar ever!!!
What's up bro keep this work up love them let's go 🔥🔥🔥🔥💗💗💗 bless
Great videography in this vid!!!! well done
Hey can someone explain why they are all gathered up on shore like that? thanks in advance.
That drone footage was awesome!!
Can you catch them on rod and reel? If so how?
some will argue that a mullet in not a fish but a fowl because it has a gizzard which is edible, there is a definite taste difference between mullet that lives or has been in river canal or bayou type water verse mullet living in sandy bottom areas like running the coast lines or open water ares
Dang vik you better have a concealed weapon permit with those guns... 😂
