Breach/break the surface of the water

Hi

Do fish sometimes breach or break the surface of the water with their fins?

MustAsk HiDo fish sometimes breach or break the surface of the water with their fins? Either works, though 'breach' is probably more often used to describe the leap of a whale out of the water. I think "with their fins" is unnecessary.
