Giant Fish of Florida 



SILVER MULLET (Mugil brasiliensis) 



This is the less common of the two mullets found in those 

 waters, and is chiefly noteworthy as being not the one in general 

 use as bait. It is taken only in nets, and not often in those, 

 as its habit is to skirt the shore, where shooting a net is attended 

 with difficulties.
