Reply to comment by TXGuns79 in Sea creatures in Greek manuscript and Norse mythology may have been whales with mouths agape — Fish instinctively swim toward apparent shelter of creature’s mouth, a phenomenon depicted in ancient texts as early as 2,000 years ago by marketrent

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.
