Net some of the bait fish and send them out on a hook, or shoe string eels work sometimes too.

Go smaller. Use itty-bitty storms.

What BBJ said, and try 1/2 oz crippled herring. I had luck using the 1 oz tin as a booster rocket to deliver teasers into the mix too.

The closer to dark the better they will hit they all seem to be real finicky on the mullet.A small swimmer at rest was the ticket for me.make it act like a injured baitfish every know n then pop it.
