salted mullies

G'day guys,

How do you guys salt your mullies?

I do mine in layers in a bucket with rock salt. I have a couple of holes in the bucket to drain the liquid away.

 Any salt that's cheap.

I don't salt them too long, normally 4 to 6 hours in the shade is enough for me. Then I re freeze the Mulies with some salt in resealable bags, 10 or so to a bag.

On a trip away overnight, or two, I leave them in smaller salt box once I'm fishing and get two days out of a slab of Mulies (when the fishing a bit slow) 

I don't have holes in the boxes, I drain the liquid a few times per day.

 What do you salt them for? Do they keep better once salted?

Do you just buy a block of mulies, defrost, salt, repackage?

 

Cheers

Rob
