Hey Rod, maybe you should explain like you did to me about the way he swims.  It will make for an easier spot now I know what I am looking for.

It is really Cool..

This guy doesn't "porpoise" in the water like other Dolphin on the move..  when he is near Boats he stays out of the water..  so he can look around to see who he wants to approach..  Just like Ken's Picture. t^


I will find this guy again.. or I am told .. he will find me.. ;) Next will be video t^

My trip out with Donavan should be in  Outdoor Magazine in Jan / Feb..

Cool!  I am keeping an eye out for him when I am out fishing.  I am sure there will be another siting, unless he heads south when it gets colder?

I have been told.. from the sightings.. he has stayed in the North East for the past 10 years or so..  Where as.. his Brothers..  from the pod  haven't left Florida..  They think he heads out to the Gulf Stream for the winter.. and waits for us to return in the spring..

I guess 56 is a loner.  But, I heard second hand that there was a lot of dolphins off northern LBI this morning.

Got this from a Thomas Fimple  Yesterday.  I have been getting a lot of emails about Dolphin 56..  seems he's been hanging around the brigantine area..

Quote
The date was yesterday Sunday July 18th 2010. The time was approximately 3pm. The location is called Corsons Inlet State Park of NJ. Its between ocean city and strathmere twp. His behavior was very alert avd playful. He swam under and around my waverunner doing barrel rolls for about 2-5 mins. Although the video is short the entire pod was in the area for a few hours. I knew nothing of the rare dolphin until I came home and began some research on the internet. What an experience it was to witness something like that.


Today Bobby and I are meeting a reporter at the boat from NJN that is doing a story on him..
