finally an expert that might be an expert

In the latest Cape Cod Chronicle an expert that has a handle on seal damage.
#1 Grey seals eat 4-6% of there body weight. Aprox44-48lbs a day each seal.
#2 An underwater camera in Bony Eldredge's Fish Weir found seals entering at night an ruining57% of the catch leaving heads and half fish, Eating squid as well.
I don't think you have to be a college grad to figure out that the seals are destroying outer Cape surf fishing let alone destroying the bass population .
I,m glade that the--experts --are finally catching on. Better late than never.
