Easy really.
Take a streamer hook, tie in some olive/snot coloured marabour as a tail, then dub the marabou by spinning it around your thread to the hook eye, whip finish & voila. What also works is to ad a bit of foam on the hook shank prior to doing the body out of marabou. This helps with getting a neutral density fly which doesn't sink too fast. I've seen that if your fly is dragging on the bottom they give it a fat ignore.
You can also tie the shaggy shrimp in similar colours or even tie it in pink, basically the same design, just add two stems of burnt mono facing the hook bend after tying in the tail.
I'm sorry to have to say it, but the bread fly, as ethically dubious as it may be, is probably still the easiest way to catch mullet on fly.
