Only boat to see whales from Victoria this morning!
Fraser river south bound was the information that we had this morning.
J pod had been feeding there all night.
Flat water most of the way and some 2-4 foot slop which I carved up with Eaglewing (our 38 footer with 750 hp). Only two boats were on scene when I got there around 11:20am. Another private experience for our guests.
The whales were spread but traveling with a definite course in mind towards Point Roberts. Ruffles, Granny, Mike, Blackberry, Shachi, Riptide, Slick & many others were there and at times some went surfing off the back of a BC Ferry coming into port at Tswassen. Our time was bitter sweet.
On the way we stopped at boiling reef to view some Harbour Seals & as we entered Active Pass we viewed a Bald Eagle in flight looking for some food near its nest.
