I had boat in Rhyl Harbour for around 5 years, Cant say I ever saw a mullet, mostley crabs in the inner harbour, nice plaice/Dabs to be had in the entrance to the harbour.

Mullet are not a fish on my catch list,they don't seem to take the usual baits.
I think the method is more akin to carp floating bread fishing.
I've seen some at the bridge end of the dock at Connah's quay.
They are frustrating fish,I always feel like I have wasted my fishing time when I've had a go at catching them.
I think the secret is in the bait that is presented to them.

If she gets in the English chanal she may become resident.
Plenty of grub knocking about.

Had a scary shark fishing trip off Adelaide in the early 60's Aussie style.
They took a dead sheep out for bait,threaded a cable through it and trolled it behind the boat at about 3 knots,Didn't take long,the sheep got snatched and the cable was twanging like a guitar string.Out came the Lee Enfield 303's.With a few sharks shot,it started a feeding frenzy.They started eating each other.
I thought,we definately need a bigger boat

We used to have a member who claimed success with garden peas. Seriously.

25 years ago my son caught a mullet in Medina Marina (IOW) on a crab line dangling a peice of bread over the side of the pontoon, made his holiday along with the storm that bouced us all over the place on the trip back to the main land.

I've heard there are plenty of Mullet on the Wirral side of the Mersey,they are up near the Ferry ports,and the sewer outlets.
I've come to the conclusion that they prefer-Pre digested food
