Crazy stuff happening this year in the waters!!! Humpback whales should migrate north with colder water yet sharks are all over shore with unusual warm water from Gulf Stream, and an unknown size school of man of wars coming up beaches also!! Crazy stuff but provides for some great reading. Nice pic!!!!

I saw the humpback plus eight porpoise plus what looked like a pilot whale by Swineburn this morning

That's 5 whale in last three trips which is more than the legal fluke my boat has seen

Saw this one out by the hook yesterday. It got really close to the boat a few times. Was pretty cool to see.
