The house🤣🤣🤣 Happy Thanksgiving also. Maybe see ya on the beach tomorrow...would try a few piers if I had access to a boat, maybe try some sheepshead catching.
Yep, Half-Tail has been around for a while. Half-Fin grew up an orphaned dolphin. His dad left early on and his mom was killed in a tug boat accident when he was just a cub chasing redfish at the Three-Mile Bridge. As a juvenile he spent much of his time in the seedy areas of Bayou Chico, where he learned to hustle, panhandle, and fight for food. This was for survival. He was a formidable opponent- often taking on several dolphins at one time and winning. He was once jumped by five dolphins where he suffered a debilitating eye injury. But he's also a hero. He once saved a baby manatee from certain death when he untangled it from the grips of a shrimp boat net that it was caught in. In that brave rescue he took a prop hit to his fin. Having matured, he's now become a local celebrity, and has been given the affectionate name Half-Fin. Today he spends much of his time basking in the sun near the Pensacola Pass, where he's always quick to greet passersby with a friendly hello and warm smile.
The dolphin that came to see you was Half Fin. He actually wanted you to pet him. He's very well known in the Pensacola area very friendly comes and checks out all the fishermen.
Been watching from New Jersey, you should definitely come up striper fishing one day! This years fall run was one of the best in a long time, nonstop crazy fishing. This has quickly become one of my favorite channels, no bs and extra talking, straight to fishing which is rare on UA-cam nowadays. Keep up the amazing content!
Having to work a little while at the Hospital today, but finding a moment to watch you enjoying life as you do puts a smile on my face, ( love your laugh as well ) Happy Thanksgiving
I live in P'cola and recognize the water you're in. Fun watching you pull in the bull reds. Great fish to catch. Gonna check out the lures you were using. Need to bring home some dinner!!!
I just came across your channel a few days ago and I'm hooked since. I keep watching your videos a few a day and really enjoying your content. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. God bless you all. Cheers from Canada.
Born and raised in Louisiana moved to Mississippi after hurricane Katrina ....I have to say me and my youngest son love your videos maybe one day I'll make it out to Alabama and fish
From across the pond. Every time I watch this channel I get a bunch of Forest Gump flashbacks. But apart from those, today I got: -"Tell me are you a Christian child?" And I said -"Ma'am I am tonight"". Keep up the positive spirit, and I want to thank you for yet another beautiful video.
Middletown ohio love your videos I did some work in gulf shores a couple of years ago from the hurricane I wish that I would have had time to fish while I was there
Love your videos man! I've had some health issues this past year and haven't been able to go fishing, so I get to live vicariously through you and your channel! hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
That's half tail he's a Pensacola bay native been around for years alot of cool story's he's real friendly to the divers I had the had the chance to meet him a few times always put on a good show for the wife and kids
I live on Pensacola Beach, and that dolphins name is Half Tale. Apparently he was attacked by a shark. At least that's the story on the beach. He's hanging around your boat because a lot of people do feed him.
At Ft . Hood teaching in H. H. 5th grade. Thanks for all the great content fishing and especially with mom. So blessed by your joy of fishing. Always grateful . Old Aviation and Artillery guy still going
Currently mobilized with the navy and just purchased a hat and two of those sweet jigs. Hopefully they’ll bring me some luck on my fishing endeavors while I’m out here. Keep up the amazing videos 🤙
That was the coolest thing ever with that dolphin hanging around your boat!! I'm glad you filmed a good portion of it. Your channel is very interesting and I watch every one of your clips. Keep up the fantastic work!
I’ve been subscribed for probably about 6 months and I’m watching from Cocoa Beach, FL. Keep up the great content and thank you for your service to our nation.
I’m a fan, buddy. You’re doing a great job and the video quality has improved greatly over the past year (I was AF Combat Camera). My 13-year-old and I love watching your fishing adventures from our home here in Mobile. We fish from Mobile to Destin, so always looking for new spots and pointers.
Really enjoyed this one. One of your best. Those reds slamming that top water plug was exciting to watch. We had a dolphin down here in river years ago that would give you a ride.
Ok so over Christmas break me (14) and my brother (16) are coming down for a few days to fish for redfish and trout. Recommend techniques, and baits? Launching at the ramp under the bridge in the intercostal. 19’ Carolina skiff can’t run too terribly far
Pre thanksgiving bama video let’s go! Enjoying this on my way up to Georgia. may try to fly fish for some trouts on this vacay! Happy thanksgiving everyone. I’m thankful for my family, friends and the lord above. Edit:oh and of course thankful for fish
That’s such a beautiful color . While u guys down south are looking to hook up red fish . We up north here are looking for fall stripers on top water plugs . Such a addicting hobby lol
I hope You and Your family have a Great Thanksgiving also. Love your videos Brother Keep it up I have been watching for a long time. My favorite saltwater fishing channel. I'm watching from Northeast Tennessee near the "Great Smokey Mountains" God Bless you, brother!
Wonderful videos. I'm from Northern Ohio. Sometimes I get to fish Lake Erie. Back in early September I caught a Striper Bass on a tigerfish spoon. Such fun. Thanks and happy fishing!
Wow that jig is amazing. I lost count on the different species. The Dolphin was cool. That was sad about the Dolphins tail. This video was awesome. Really enjoy your videos. Bless you for the excellent adventure.
Can I make a suggestion for potential merch? I think different reel covers and rod covers with your brand would be really cool. I myself just picked up some okuma 303's and can't find reel covers for them.
Hope you had a blessed Thanksgiving. Originally from Annapolis, MD but now living outside of Phenix City, AL after retiring from the military. Keep the great fishing vids coming. Cheers...
When the dolphin show up I move positions. They are everywhere here in the Indian River in Florida. Neat to see but they will eat your fish when you throw them back. I’v thrown many a small trout in the live well just to release them half mile away. Great video as always. Happy Thanksgiving.
Lets gooooo! I tried to fish a pier in St Simons island tonight, but I didn’t catch anything. The tide was crazy high but the current was also crazy too. Hopefully I’ll get something tomorrow. Loved the video man!
I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving tomorrow! I know I'm going fishing, lets see where everyone is watching from!
Raised in Panama City FL
Living out side of saint Louis since mil retirement
Miss that gulf fishing
The house🤣🤣🤣
Happy Thanksgiving also. Maybe see ya on the beach tomorrow...would try a few piers if I had access to a boat, maybe try some sheepshead catching.

Half tail or “Halfie” has been a regular in Pensacola Bay for over 12 years. He is always alone and very friendly.
Yes, I have had a few friends message me . Such an amazing mammal. It looks like it has ever missed a meal! LOLOL

We met half tail 5 years ago.

A great yarn!
Sounds like killers story from half baked
How know so much about it are you sure your not a dolphin too?
Nah no way... the only explanation for this, is that your probably his dad that left out on him smh
The dolphin that came to see you was Half Fin. He actually wanted you to pet him. He's very well known in the Pensacola area very friendly comes and checks out all the fishermen.
You should of caught a fish and fed it to him
Spring, Tx
@@bradensalcetti2 kinda wrong to catch and feed him the fish plus might be a lot of work considering laws
I love your yappin'! It's part of the reason we watch, keep doin' what your doin'!
