I used to wear a mullet back in the early 70's , but don't know much about canning it. Sorry I couldn't resist

Seriously there are some canning pros here on the swamp and some good recipes in the food section. I gaurantee someone will be able to help.

Never canned mullet, but I have canned a lot of trout. It's not difficult, just time consuming.

I skin the trout and cut it up bones and all. Pack it into clean hot jars, I use pints. I do not add any additional liquid, but I think some guys will add a tbls of white vinegar or ketchup for color. I think the processing time is 75 minutes at 10 pounds pressure. It dissolves the bones and it ends up similar to canned salmon you'd buy in the store.
