Porpoise fun

Was out running Bulls Bay yesterday and ICW encountered a group of over the top porpoises, we actually coaxed them up to the side of the boat for a rub of the head way cool. I have seen this closer to the shrimp fleet but not usually this far down the Bay,

$10K fine for your “fun” you were having. Not sure dnr would ever enforce it but it’s on the books.

It is what it is!

Agree with CaptFritz. You can not do this type of activity with marine wildlife, especially mammals.

This world has way too many rules. I’ll take pleasure in every dolphin encounter that I encounter :smiley: They make a decision when they come to the boat and if they want their heads rubbed, I’ll rub it. Dang the drones. I’m not going to hurt these creatures and they know it. They are smarter than we are.

Still enjoyed it and if they come to the boat next trip I will snap photos and let the kids admire

They certainly are. I don’t know a single Dolphin that voted for Obama.

Funny J.P., don’t know one that voted for the other side either…it’s a FISHING forum.

Isn’t humor welcomed from time to time? Or, maybe it wasn’t funny because you voted for Obama?
