Roadkillal's Tribute to the Sea Mullet

Home
Page Title

Whether you call them Whiting, Kingfish or Sea Mullet these fish are some of the most spirited fish you can catch and their sweet white firm meat are quite tasty as well. It was quoted once that if Mullet grew to 20 pounds someone would have to invent new tackle to catch them. Just think if they would grow to 3 tons? I am positive that Benchley would have written about them and Spielberg would have immoratized them. This website is a tribute to this fine fish.
 
(I have always had a problem about playing with my food.)

 Hooper: This was no boat accident, this was no boat accident, and it wasn't any propeller; and it wasn't any coral reef, and it wasn't Jack the Ripper,  it was a Mullet.
 
Ellen Brody: [to Chief Brody] You told me the Mullet was caught. And I, I heard it on the news... I heard it on the Cape station.
Hooper: They caught A Mullet, not THE Mullet. Big difference. Not the Mullet that killed Chrissie Watkins... and probably not the mullet that killed the little boy... which I wanted to prove today, by cutting the mullet open.

Brody: You're gonna need a bigger boat
 
Quint: What d'ya have there - a portable shower or a monkey cage?
Hooper: Anti-Mullet cage.
Quint: Anti-Mullet cage. You go inside the cage?
[Hooper nods]
Quint: Cage goes in the water, you go in the water. Mullet's in the water. Our Mullet.
[sings]
Quint: Farewell and adieu to you, fair Spanish ladies. Farewell and adieu, you ladies of Spain. For we've received orders for to sail back to Boston. And so nevermore shall we see you again

Quint: I'm not talkin' 'bout pleasure boatin' or day sailin'. I'm talkin' 'bout workin' for a livin'. I'm talkin' 'bout mullettin!
 
Hooper: Boys, oh boys... I think he's come back for his noon feeding.

Brody: Smile you son of a BITCH.
 
Brody: What day is this?
Hooper: It's Wednesday... eh, it's Tuesday, I think.
Brody: Think the tide's with us?
Hooper: Keep kicking.
Brody: I used to hate the water...
Hooper: I can't imagine why.
