What I think is crazy, is everything says baleen whales eat plankton and only plankton. But, here, a baleen whale is eating fish, and not just fry or the occasional fish accendentally.

I am not sure what "sources" you are reading that say baleen whales eat plankton and only plankton. Many sources talk about blue whales eating krill, which is not plankton, but a small crustacean. IANAWB, but I do calls them like I sees them, and I have often seen references to baleen whales eating fish in eyewitness books, children's whale books, and general internet research.
