4 TON of Killer whale who did not seem to know it was caught !!!
The lure had snagged the dorsil fin.
ended up cutting my line....
I wish we had the cameras then that we have today  |
Good story< and I believe it. Must have been awesome to see an ORCA breach in front of you. The whales and related species are getting closer to us humans every day. Closer in our minds I mean. Closer meaning WE are actually just starting to figure them out and communicate with them. I am a witness to this. More than once.
