There is an interesting article by a professor who states that the reason the bass population and fishing in general is going down hill on the Cape is because the recreational fishermen are fishing the salt marshes.
His reasoning is that the recs are taking the top of the food chain, bass and blues, and the result is the proliferation of sub-species of crabs which are killing the salt marshes.

There is no mention in his article of seals. Just us guys killing all the predators and thus killing the marshes.

Probably the most misguided article I have read yet.
