Sports fishermen off the coast of North Carolina have been witness to an unusual event with a pod of killer whales working the waters. A specie that is more often seen in the Pacific ocean they can be found in just about every ocean in the world. Epic Blitz has the entire story and videos that is worth checking out.

so I grab my popping rod and work the popper about two pops and bam I get nailed by another large tuna. The fish takes off and I start working on it. It didn’t seem as big as the first fish I hooked and I got her under control. I almost had her at color when we saw to the left the pod of Orca’s coming towards us and the fish. Greg said ugh ohh and next thing I know the Orcas took a big breath and dove. As soon as they dove my Tuna took off for the the horizon. These Orcas were after my Tuna WTF do I do? Well about 150 yards out we see a huge explosion and the largest of the group of Orca’s nails the Tuna. I didn’t see all of it as I was kinda working on fighting the fish but everyone else did. Unfortunately we don’t have video of all of this but Greg wasnt sure the Orca had the Tuna so I handed him the rod and I started taking video. He realized once he got tight and the Orca came to the surface again that she had the Tuna. Captain Jaime saw it even better than we did.

Wow this is an amazing story and to think it happened off our coast is even more amazing. North Carolina has some spectacular fishing opportunities just can’t promise you’ll see anything like this.
