I can tell you all the years I fished from a small 12' aluminum boat out there the mung was what we looked for as it provided cover for the fish. Rarely did you catch a fish if mung wasn't present, believe it or not. From the shore its a bit different but you can still find holes in the mung patches if you keep walking along and sometimes you nail the fish right on the edges.
Seals are a different story but I feel people simply throw seals and mung as lazyman's excuses for not making the effort to fish out there. Like the mung, seals move to other places at times, leaving opportunity for the committed.

I agree Mike. I remember when High Head would get totally munged up and we'd fish the holes between the mung. Drop an eel in a clear spot and BANG, you're on. Landing the fish was another story.
