Have you ever eaten mullet? If you cut open a mullet from over here, they're full of mud. Must be the muddy bottoms over here versus the sand bottoms in Florida. Could be the same thing with pompano. I know they catch them off the beach in Florida with sand fleas. Don't even know if we have sand fleas over here.
