The so-called 'killer whales,' which are actually members of the dolphin family, even showed the old sport fishermen they're not bad athletes themselves.

Silva makes mega yacht runs from San Diego to Ensenda, and hosts some whale watching and sportfishing charters out of San Diego Bay with Scales n Tales Sportsfishing. But his once-in-a-lifetime encounter with around a dozen orcas came during a solo trip about 35 miles west of Point Loma.

The so-called"killer whales," which are actually members of the dolphin family, even showed the old sport fishermen they're not bad athletes themselves.Silva was first alerted to the orcas thanks to a larger pod of nearly 200 dolphins.Soon after, he saw an orca's dorsal fin spear through the water's surface. It was clear the orcas were after a meal. That ping-ponging Silva referred to was two orcas fin-slapping a little dolphin back-and-forth to each other.
