Squaretail Mullet or Diamond-Scale Mullet [Liza Vaigiensis] also known as Chow Orh 草乌, 鯔魚[chinese] or Belanak [malay] can be caught all year round, but are particularly active from late January to late Feburary. The most productive times for catching mullet are early mornings on a in coming tide, likewise throughout the afternoon on a in out going tide. Mullet are not normally taken at night. When on the bite, they tend to give a very sharp bite, therefore it is essential that you hold the rod at all times with a tight line.

When fish are plentiful and biting well, try holding steady pressure on a hooked fish for a few seconds without retrieving. This will often result in a second or third mullet being hooked and landed on the one cast. Once a school of mullet is located from a beach, it is often possible to bring them closer to you by gradually shortening the length of your casts.

Squaretail Mullet or Diamond-Scale Mullet [Liza Vaigiensis] also known as Chow Orh 草乌, 鯔魚[chinese] or Belanak [malay] have found an ecological niche by mostly eating mud. Their phenomenally long digestive tracts allow them to digest out the goodness in the microscopic creatures which live in the mud, and in the green algae which grows on rocks and structures, and in the surface film that forms on the water on calm days.

It's when they are feeding on the surface film that you are most likely to see them, and puzzle at their behaviour, as they seem to gulp at the air. When Squaretail Mullet or Diamond-Scale Mullet [Liza Vaigiensis] also known as Chow Orh 草乌, 鯔魚[chinese] or Belanak [malay] have been feeding like this, I've often been amused at the attempts of frustrated anglers, trying to hook one of these frustrating creatures.
