I was fishing a spot in a river on the south shore, I had found a little area where schoolies were ambushing herring fry, or some other tiny bait fish. I got to my spot at about 145am and fished for an hour or so with no luck. It was confusing because the bait was all there but no popping of stripers on this night. All of a sudden from under the bridge I was next to comes this big nasty coughing. I'm on the rocks and it is no more than 20-30 feet from me. I popped my head lamp on and saw a big splash go into the water. Damn seal was sitting right next to me. No wonder the bass were gone. Weird though, he kept coughing, about 40 or 50 times before he finally headed down river. Maybe some kind of seal bronchitis going around responsible for those dead seals. Or maybe the fact that theres a million seals and with that there will naturally be more dead seals. Either way, that bastard scared the @#$% out of me.
