I believe Mac and myself witnessed that .. Looked like you had enough Slip .. I don't go down there any more.. beautiful beaches,, but a waste of gas and time . I believe the seals have been trained by the fishers down there. If they see you with a fishing rod walking the beach they'll follow you, looking for an easy meal . They are much better fishers than us . No Contest ..
