Nice. any memory of Neptune restaurant, over in Cocoa? I think their sign said something like " your dinner slept in the ocean (or river) last night"...good food. I remember scooping up BIG blue crabs that would hang out on the seawall of the canals over in Diana Shores & sykes creek. there were dozens and it was super easy to get dinner for all in a short time. that was long time ago too.

I was raised two streets south of the Pineda (which was a dirt road then) so not much info on the Cocoa/Rockledge area. Lots of good memories of how it was. I just cannot believe what our "leaders" are doing to us - Melbourne and Palm Bay are exploding as well as the County areas of Viera, etc. And now we have Rockledge changing zoning on what was a huge agricultural zone. I can't believe they really want to live in this. You can't even move on the roads any more. It really was better back then.

Mullet...best fried fish ever, huh?
I'll stick with my snook and snapper, thank you very much. You are what you eat....?

I'll stick with my snook and snapper, thank you very much." No, thank you. More for the rest of us.

Once the carpetbagger gillnetters were stopped, there's lots of them again, helps all the other species.
I'll try a smoked one, people say they're good.
But with snook, speckled trout, reds and pompano out there......

My pops used to smoke them in an old refrigerator with mangrove wood back in the day. They were delicious and I hated fish as a kid.

So long and thanks for all the fish.

As if this could possibly get better? It does.

They have cards! Names for their mullets and how long their mullets have decorated their brilliant heads!

We'd go to Posey's back in the day when I was up at FSU. They were famous for their smoked mullet. I thought it was disgusting.
