12/24 jumping fish?
A few times yesterday I saw fish jumping about 50 yards beyond the outer bar. They were around 2' and chunky. I've no idea what they were. Anyone have an idea?

Only saw one or two at a time, but definitely not mullet. Bonito are a possibility, but thought the water would be too cool this time of year.

I’ve seen bobos in the middle of winter they seem pretty cold tolerant.

We saw some blackfin tuna jump at Okaloosa a few weeks ago. Pretty cool sight.

It has been a long time since I was on the Gulf State Pier. Like the week after Hurricane Camille that long ago long. I fished that week with Buddy Brown who used to live in Gulf Shores. That being...
Good to be back on the Pier again
