Sharks on seals

There has been reports by tourist beach goers on the outer cape of witnessing shark attacks on seals for some years now.... there is a breeding colony in Chatham with over 1500 members now.... studies are ongoing to determine which area up north they have migrated from.

And yes they eat bass and blues....and lots more....

Last year someone was fighting a large bass down cape....took him down the beach 1/4 mile....all of a sudden he felt the load lighten and reeled in a head only....at a local baitshop they guestimated the bass was over 50lbs before he got chomped...by a large seal.
