I was out in the gulf with a friend of mine recently (August 27th) and we were in about 30' of water off the beach. While moving to another spot, in the distance we saw something on the surface that looked really strange. Out of curiousity, we had to go take a closer look. Once we were able to see what it was, we were completely shocked at what we saw - a killer whale!!!!! We did not want to get too close to it and just let it be - sure didn't want to spook it and have it hit the 17' Whaler! It appeared to be heading northeast with the wind towards the Galveston jetties. Maybe someone else saw it too?????
