Killer Whales in the Sea of Cortez

My dear and departed fishing friend Spotts Willis who fished out of Cholla Bay told me he witnessed Killer Whales near RP once. These pics were shot in Loreto:


Killer whales put on rare and amazing show for boaters off Mexico

I have encountered orcas off Rocky Point on a couple of occasions. Also off San Carlos. These are some of the best orca pics I've ever seen, taken by my friend Fernando of Catch-22 Sportfishing in San Carlos. I'm sure there were some soiled britches on the Catch-22 that day!! Surfing the wake!

Amazing! I would love to see that. Just seeing the mountains in the background of those pics makes me miss San Carlos even more than before. I haven't been down there since 2001 - next Spring I need to sacrifice an RP trip and head to San Carlos instead.

In 1989 we found a 12 foot Killer whale dead on the beach near the 2nd estuary. We went back the next week after a winter storm and it was gone.
