Watch: Breaching humpback whale shocks dad and son on fishing trip at the Jersey shore
BELMAWR, N.J. - A casual father-son fishing trip quickly turned into a whale of a good time at the Jersey shore!
Zach Piller from Bensalem, and his dad Doug, were casting their fishing line on a boat, when suddenly hundreds of fish started jumping from the water.
Moments later, the surface of the water broke, and a huge humpback whale breached in front of their eyes. The massive whale crashed back into the water, knocking against their boat.
