St. George's Creek, to the east of Piney Point, St. Georges Island.
St. Mary County.
As the other side is the Potomac River.

St. George Island and St. Mary's County.

??? St. George's Island IS in St. Marys.

Don't know the "AND" part of your comment.????

The inlet between Piney Point and the island connects the Potomac and the Creek. I have done a lot of fishing there for spot !!!
Good fishing, no wonder the dolphins are there!!

Dang

I spent many hours kayaking there a long time ago (80s) I worked at the Lundeberg school and never saw any dolphin that is cool !

In those days in 10' of water you could fill a bushel basket with oysters (scuba) in as far as your arm would reach....my last trip the bottom was barren as in nothing but some grass.

They were there last week, too. Someone posted a video to Facebook.

If you search Google images, looks like dolphins like kayaks. Probably because it sort of puts you on their level. Almost like a Dolphtaur

Back a (quite) few years ago, I ended up on the island of Ascencion, and there was a fish fry on the beach. When they mentioned we were eating dolphin, I, who had never known there was a fish by the same name, was a bit freaked out

Mahi Mahi and it's great. I saw it on the menu at this great restaurant in NC called Pirate's Cove when I was 17. I almost jumped out of my chair. My date then told me that it was not a Flipper dolphin. Of course he had to order it. I tried it and it was yummy.

I'll be catching my share next week, never seen a more beautiful tasty fish but their color fades fast once out of the water.

What did your kids have?

I was 17. I didn't have my first kid for another 10 years.

Back in the mid-90s, I was at Swann's when a school of more than a hundred came up the creek from the south. Loping along and regularly broaching the surface in shallow dives..continued all the way up to about the eel plant..then only a bit later they came back south and left under the bridge.

It took a good half an hour to watch the steady procession pass through, there were so many of them.

Always great to see them pay us a visit once in awhile.

They have really hung around for a long time this year.

When my Brother and I were kids, we spent a month in Florida one summer.
We went to Sea World, where they handed spectators a smelt after the show and you could feed the dolphins. People petted them as they gave them a fish. They feel like wet vinyl; and all muscle.
