whales in la jolla - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

sharonkayak · 09-06-2011, 06:46 PM

back a month or so ago I was out fishing with my friend steve. The whales were hanging out in LJ.

I threw my life jacket on tied down my poles and got some great pictures.

They were feeding so you werent really sure where they were going to pop up.

I think these are my best pictures of the summer.

Great Pics, It always freaks me out when you launch before dawn and hear the whales coming up for air. You can't see them but they seem like right next to you.

Dana Wharf sportfishing has been reporting numerous whale sightings up there. Up to 400 now.

Those are great shots you got.
