Wednesday, February 8, 2012 ~ Hank, my yellow lab, bonding with Dolphins off Captiva Island – the fishing was also excellent

Hank spent some time bonding with a dolphin pod on yesterday’s charter off South Seas Plantation at Redfish Pass, Captiva.

Hank used to jump right in to try to swim with them, but he has learned over time that they are just a little bit better swimmers than him.  So now he does a lot of looking and longing.

Occasionally, dolphin and dog get almost nose to nose in fellow mammalian inquisitiveness and brotherhood.  I’ll try to get a better photo of this.

Oh, the fishing was also great yesterday!

Fishing has been particularly productive around Captiva. We’re using shrimp for sheepshead, redfish, grouper, sea trout & lady fish and the rods are staying bent.

The warm winter is really helping the activity and fishing.

Fair winds and following seas,
