A girlfriend and I had the livewell pump crap out during a trip to Boca Grande Train Tressel. In order to save her catch I had to put her fish on a stringer. A trout that was near dead and a nice Mangrove Snapper in the 3 lb class. Flipper showed up to take the catch and pull the loop off my stringer. Showed up upside down right under my foot, sneak attack that startled me. Then hung around and posed for pictures right after. Smart feeesh.
I have seen them all the way up in the Homasassa herding mullet in clear water. I have also seen the mud rings they create down in the keys. They slay mullet.

I am not sure what was going after the mullet in the video. Maybe blues. They hit the water just like that. Flipper normally can be seen. They normally pluck them out of the air when they have them rounded up too. It is very interesting/entertaining to watch.
