Norwegian fishermen Svein Aasjord and Trond Ivarjord saw the whales and stopped the engine of their little fishing boat to watch in an icy fjord near Whale Island (Kvaløya).
The fjords in Troms are full of herring at the moment, and the whales work together to hunt them. The men see the bubbles coming closer to their boat, and say "it might be close here", and then there are six enormous humpback whales right around their boat "Å, FY FAEN!" (Crikey!).
Google translate does a reasonable job of translating the entertaining article from TV2.no, link here
