Thursday Aug 10 2017 we headed off to the Coimbra Wreck 30 miles out of Moriches inlet. Conditions couldn’t have been better with flat seas, a light breeze, and low humidity.
We were treated to a spectacular Sunrise on the way out on Capt. Adrian Mason’s boat Big Trouble and made the journey in about an hour and had lines in by 6:30 a.m.
We saw a water spout about a mile or so south of the Coimbra and decided to pick up and move in that direction and soon spotted several Fin Whales, a pod of Bottlenose Dolphins and a few boats hooked up with small Tuna.
One of the whales swam close enough to give us a huge and very smelly exhale. If you have never smelled Whale breath, OMG let me tell you it’s bad they need a GIANT TIC TAC !
