Here's an article in the local rag. It goes to say that Mr Len Gibson got a good view of some killer whales on his SUP.
It also goes on to say that there have also been some Killer Whales spotted ! I thought I saw a decent size dorsal fin the other day at Winki Lowers, and I cut my surf short, just in case it was a Great White. But I now think it was likely to have been a Killer Whale.
Had a surf Phillsway this arve and there was what I would imagine to be a couple of Southern Rights basking about 300 metres out off the main beach. Big Hooers, Bloody awesome but bloody cold.

They've been reporting bigger and bigger numbers every year for ages now.
One of the sadest things is that the "Southern Right Whale" obtained it's name because it was "The Right Whale" to catch.... slow moving target

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_right_whale
The testicles of right whales are likely to be the largest of any animal, each weighing around 500 kg (1,100 lb). This suggests that sperm competition is important in the mating process.

haha !! I did not know that !!
Hey Mr Sparks,
There was some nice size tonight.
Kristi saw them too they were around for about 2 hrs.
looks like the swell is here for a while yet and more days of glassy offshores.
we're stuck with OG but i would hate to think what some other places were going off like tonight.

Whales at the Wye.
A very special place in my family. My ancestors settled the place, divided it, built the pub then sold off all of the land to drink in the pub. Great Irish logic. Actually they did a whole lot more for the town. One of them built most of it.
There is a path (Paddys Path) dedicated to my Grandmas Cousin that runs around the hill. We had a huge reunion at its opening. All of the family history and axes etc are in the Apollo Bay museum.
I spent most of my childhood before we moved to QLD in Wye River, I love the place! Such fond memories of a place now called Harrington Cairn.
Another cracker day on the surf coast and surrounds. In the water by eight this morning, had to scrape the ice off my windscreen. Surf smaller than yesterday but still pumping! A pair of Southern Rights passed by quite close, possibly the same ones from Phillsway yesterday. These guys did a left turn at the Heads and started off up the bay. Suns out and its a classic, just wish my feet would thaw out.

Hey Jed,
As Sparks says its been heaven.
I think your mate is stretching it a bit saying 8 degs more like 4 - 6 most of the time
Kristis feet have been going blue before she will get out.
Since I cant drive we are limited to OG but Bells, Damos etc etc have been off the charts.
Today is beautiful blue skies light offshore and perfect.
Cant ask for more.
Looks like DJ will get great conditions for tomorrows DW lets hope.

Here's an article in the local rag. It goes to say that Mr Len Gibson got a good view of some killer whales on his SUP.
I will vouch for the killer whale/orca that Lenny saw. I was over on the other break by myself, further out and pretending to be paddling out but didn't want to get too close. I thought the dorsal fin was a periscope of a submarine it was that long. It came up a couple of times as it went past and I saw its smiley face. Research says that it was a long fined killer whale, there was also a couple of dolphins with it. Amazing, and SUP's give the best vantage point. Guys in the car park were all talking about it as well.
