The Mullet of Boggy Bayou

By Linda Tancs

The mullet of Boggy Bayou:  sounds like a children’s tale, doesn’t it?  In a sense, it is.  It’s a place (Boggy Bayou, that is–now known as Niceville) in Florida’s Panhandle where children will gather with their families and neighbors in a time-honored tradition of consuming the local fish, the mullet.  In time, those children will teach their children about mullet fishing in the former village of Boggy Bayou.  This annual mullet festival, taking place this year from 21 to 23 October, is one of the best known country music events.  Headliners this year are Trace Adkins, Brantley Gilbert, Jake Owen and Steel Magnolia.  Get ready to make some memories.
