Unprovoked attack on yakker at LJ - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I saw the lil whale, just circling and went over for a closer look. Once it saw me it came right over. I'd paddle off to try and shoot some video and it would come right under me again, so it was hard to shoot what I wanted. This happenened a few times, then Big Mama came up from the depths. She breached almost coming completely out of the water. That was when I put some distance and shot a little with the zoom. The lil one never bumped me, but I paddled out of the way a few times and it did splash me pretty good with it's tail.

Weather was great, just got better as the morning went. Only fish was a sandbass and a short halibut. If I went tomorrow, I'd go north, tons of sardine along the beach.

Very cool experience.
