It started a couple of years ago. It's kinda like a high-jump for whales. Trouble is, there's nuttin' for them to jump over except themselves...or boats. It's still a new sport, I guess, because they haven't gotten it down right, yet. They keep landing on the boats.
I've unwittingly found myself in the middle of a dozen or so humpbacks feeding on the west side of the Farallon Is. My fishing buddies thought it was 'cool', I was scared and since I was driving, I got the poop outta there in a hurry.
