gulp swimming mullet 5" ???

[Billfish715]

I didn't buy them. When I looked at them, they didn't look significantly longer than the 4". They did seem to have more "girth" which might make them hold up longer on a jig hook. Exclusivity and distribution of products has always been a part of the trade. There was a time when retailers could only buy through a wholesaler.....PERIOD. That included big, box stores. Some products simply have no mark up for individual retailers given the volume buying power of catalogue houses and the internet. Until someone proves that the 5" is catching more fish than the 4", why sweat what you can't control?
