GregL Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Saw that school of kings there on Monday arvo when I was fishing the race area for blackfish. Decent size school that only slowed down feeding when ferries drove threw them. Just a great site to watch! G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inhlanzi Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Yea I heard Justin Duggan on 2UE this morning and he said there were hundreds of them. Should have hear the excitement in his voice. He said they were after Kings and Salmon. Did any of the raiders see any of the action. I think it was at about 09h45 cheers inhlanzi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brickman Posted October 16, 2008 Author Share Posted October 16, 2008 no i got the news from the boss and while he was on the phone they we under the boat 100 dolpins in the harbour would be a sight to see gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh88 Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 I saw birds working over that way about 830 this morning on the train to school and assumed they were kings feeding....maybe they were and then the dolphins came and got into them. Saw pics of the dolphins on the news, when we were out on the harbour about a month ago, the dolphins popped up right in front of our boat as we were going under the harbour bridge, would've made a nice picture......needless to say the kings weren't there that day.

Frizzy Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Friend of mine catches a ferry to Circular Quay from Five Dock. The ferry captain announced it to the passengers when they passed by the ferry. She said she saw at least 16 of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Loops Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Reckon these dolphins are heading up to Port Stephens. We made the run from Port to Broken Bay this morning and ran right into a pod that easily had 100 dolphins in it. Got some wicked footage of them swimming and tail slapping right at the bow - water so clear could see down through about 15m - the footage came out really well. They were just cruising up the coast - we saw them around Norah Head and did a u-turn and cruised with them for about 15 minutes - suppose they are very relaxed when there are so many in one place at one time.. Might put the footage up on U-Tube coz it is really clear and there are heaps of the buggers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
