From record yellowtail, to record 660 lb swordfish...now whale shark off San Diego


Strange ocean sightings NOB continue...

"The leader of a dive expedition heading twelve miles off San Diego's shore Saturday stopped just three miles out when she spotted a large fin, only to discover it was a rare whale shark swimming close to shore.

"It really was an experience that took our breath away," said Emily Callahan, an ocean conservationist and diver. "I don't think I'll ever see something like that off of San Diego again, so feel very fortunate that she let us swim along side us for up to an hour, it was really amazing."
