Nice one
We have a local tame seal, He regularly tries to pinch my catch, so I have to pull in my float, then he plays a hide and seek sort of game or swims around my feet. I remember the first time I saw him, much like your experience
I also for a moment thought he was a huge Bass and was aimimng through the murk looking for the head, when I realised that there was more animal there than I thought
