I caught this guy swimming from one island to another a few weeks back by Orcas Island.

On the same trip, we saw this dead exotic on Speiden island.

Do you think an orca passing by would take a bite?

Funny you should say that Ray.  My wife was talking to a gal she works with about seeing the deer swimming, and she said a while back she was out on a whale watching boat when they actually saw an orca take a deer that was swimming between islands.  That would have been amazing to witness.

I read a short story in OL a few years back about two fisherman that witnessed a pod of Orcas kill a cow and a calf moose while they were island hopping!
