    It really is sad to go to those places for me.

    For example where I fish there is a pod of dolphins I regularly see. There are even times they help me fishing, kinda, they will encircle the schools and drive them to the surface or weedlines and ledges I fish, and boom im hooked up and pulling in mackerel, trout, permit left and right and hit my limit in 20 minutes after having been out there for hours.

    Often they will ride the bow of my boat when im running the edge of the flats, and when I see them coming toward me ill pull off plane, and they will often come dart right by the boat and do jumps and crazy shit. It really is a sight to see and my wife and kids will sometimes come fishing (or some out later) just to see the pod being dolphins.

    Even my 5 year old noticed the difference between them and the ones at the Atlanta Aquarium. He said "they look so bored and sad". yeah they do, and that's why we don't go to most aquariums anymore.
