Smoked mullet is very good - we used to catch them on the east coast and up the St. John's. You can make a great dip with the mullet, too. Good to hear from another Florida cracker!

Same here my friend. Florida crackers are fast becoming a rare breed down there these days.

Anybody who likes mullet can't be all bad. The snowbirds who move to FL turn up their noses at it you know. I was raised on mullet and grits, and could still eat it every day if I could get it. In the old days anybody who could spread a cast net would never go hungry down there, there were too many good things free for the taking. My dad always said if it hadn't been for mullet, guavas, and swamp cabbage he wouldn't have made it through the depression.
