I've landed all mine in finger mullet live and dead hooked through the head.
Once Dead I semi filet the tail so it has exposed flesh flaps on each side. Hope that helps? _________________

Are you sure they weren't drum? Theres been a school of drum hanging out in the channel.
Assuming they were reds, reds will rarely turn down a gold spoon. Or cut skipjack. |

If it's drum you can't go wrong with crab fish bites chartreuse  _________________
