Salmon and Orcas

We set off early this morning for US waters.  I love being on the water in the early morning.  The water tends to be smooth and peaceful.  It's not the greatest for sailing but it is beautiful.

We were given to understand that good salmon fishing might be found along San Juan Island's Lime Kiln Point. Just as we get our equipment set Dean spies a pod of Orcas.  The pod of about 20 was swimming together between us and the western shore of San Juan Island.  The whales apparently had the same fishing intel.  The whales stayed close to us through the day until we finally had to give up any hope of fishing.
