The document describes the mullet fishing and processing operations of a fishing sloop called "Harder." It details how the sloop uses seine nets to catch mullet without damaging the fish. The mullet are then taken one by one from the nets, placed on ice, and transported to a facility where they are filleted, smoked, packaged, and frozen for consumers. The process ensures high quality mullet that is artisanally smoked and cleanly packaged with information about the fisherman and boat.
