Default Whale Sighting

Took my dad out on my boat for father's day for some fishing. We left out of Cape May (New Jersey) and hit the Five Fathom Bank (about 12-15 miles offshore) for some trolling for bluefish. For about an hour, we had 3 finback whales swimming along side the boat. They looked to be about 70-80 feet long. At one point they were about 30 yards away. Talk about being nervous. This was one of the coolest experiences I've had. After an hour of not catching any fish, we decided to say goodbye to the whales and head a mile or two away from them to set up chumming.
