Whale pic was off Lake Tyers , nowhere near where I fished. Just after I had finished cleaning and vacuum packing my fish, the coast guard pager went off and we took the coast guard boat back out to jump start a boat 10 nm east of lake Tyers. Had time for some photos of the whales. There has been dozens of them this last week or so.
While I was fishing 8 mile offshore, there was a constant procession of whales swimming past and splashing with there tails. When you are sitting there with the motor off you can hear them. Sounds like an explosion when the breach.
