A few years ago I was flyfishing for S.R.C. in the sound [Picnic Point] in my float tube, off shore a ways as some were jumping here and there. As I raised my rod to begin casting again there was this loud BLOOSH noise behind me. I turned to look and saw a LARGE boil in the water about 20 feet away. After I lowered myself back into my tube and shoved my heart out of my throat, I looked around and a sea lion slowly raised his head up on the other side of me from where the boil was. I think he went under me!! After he or she determined I was not good for food or sex the head slowly went back under the water. I just wish I knew what that sea lion thought about that big doughnut with fins and legs.
