    Well, you didn’t get skunked—a small fish is better than no fish at all, correct?

    Did you feed him? I would have.

    One of my best memories is of me and my dad fishing for red snapper off the gulf coast of florida (pensacola) There was a huge dolphin that sat at the surface about 50 yards behind the boat. When we would catch a short fish and throw it back, he'd chase it down and eat it. Did this for about an hour. He never one time tried to get the fish while they were hooked. Always waited until we threw them back. I had heard that dolphins were smart but I had no idea how smart. That dude was like human smart. Was a ton of fun watching him. We tried throwing the fish as far as we could in front of the boat to give them a fighting chance. None of them made it!

    Them dolphins follow party boats and ONLY take the best and biggest species, truly a nuisance animal due to that big ole brain…
    My dad worked as a young man on a research boat ….harpooning them …
    Not kidding, they only took out the brain ….
    Sometimes I feed wildlife sometimes not , I didn’t feed him or he would a been in my blue jeans front pocket ….
