Went out to run the new to me boat saturday getting the nerve built up to take her deep. Saw a couple full breaches and had a pod of 2 slowly surface like dolphins 20’ off my starboard while idling. One was ~45-50" the other was absolutely huge- well over 6 feet. Didn’t bring the proper equipment or bait as i figured I’d be jigging the 60 to pass the time making sure the boat floats.
Saw them all north of the jetties and within 3 miles of shore.
Awesome, thanks

I swear I hooked one in the north edisto ten years ago with a live mullet under a baloon fishing for sharks. The fish kept peeling off line then spit the hook. Pulling too fast to be a shark.

9 times put of 10 a poon will jump as soon as you hook em
I’ve never not had a poon jump immediately after hook up so 99 out if 100 more like it
i have caught a lot of tarpon in sw florida and the keys. almost every single one jumped in the first 5 seconds… complete madness. only once did i hook a nice 120 and it didnt jump until it was about 300 yards away. all on fly
ALL GINKED UP
Saw one role at Folly Thursday morning
Is that normal for them to be so close in?

Last year sitting on Tybee, I saw two or three rolling just beyond the surf in/around a little school of mullet. I just kept thinking how fast the water would clear after one blasted out of the water… if I had a rod and hooked up. I could have almost hand fed them. No one around seemed to notice them at all. I walked down the beach for several 100 yards watching them roll almost as consistently as dolphin.
