Thank god for those scientists and marine biologists or else the general public would have no realistic idea of why this is happening. I can see it now, hundreds of tree huggers swarm the outter cape pushing each individual pogie back onto the water to certain death
Are these federally funded scientists?

Saw same near Quonnie on the beach about 10 years ago. Big bunker with Bluefish after them, and Tuna after the Bluefish.
Bunker and Bluefish beached themselves. Awesome sight. Picked up live Bunker and livelined them. They would jump straight out of the water with the Bluefish under them.

Had the same thing happen many years ago down in Marshfield.
After a big storm had knocked out power in the region, we brought down coolers and ice for my sister, so she could save as much perishables as possible over the weekend until power was restored.

We sent to the beach just before sunset and saw a massive blitz.
The pogies were beaching themselves, and if they tried to retreat to deeper water, they were met with razor sharp teeth at the breakwater mark. you could wade through the surviving fish, but didn't dare go any deeper because we all knew what waited out there! I can recall watching waves break on the shore and seeing open mouths come flying out. Mouths full of teeth!

Next morning there wasn't a pogie left on the beach, but there were a number of dead sharks that had come to join the frenzy, and stayed a little too long....

I am a legend in my own mind!
