| Could it be one of the very fast coast guard vessels check the smaller craft for fishing permits? You would be able to spot the 'rooster tail' wash from the back of the boat but not necessarily the boat from that distance. |

| My guess a flock, sorry I think you would call it 'school', of fish. This time of the year: Palamut. |

| The coast guard has been quite busy out there the last few days, we've seen them (and the enormous rooster tail!) several times! Must be looking for something/somebody? |
