where did all the seals come from?

[Clammer]

Every year we get more & more ..

They suck!

Funny how people I've asked about seals and if they were a problem 30-40 years ago and they say "no... not at all" even when their numbers were stronger than they are now. If they aren't concerned, why are you so concerned?

[likwid]

Well to be honest, I'm pretty sure they have a little more right to the fish than we do.

I'm eagerly awaiting the first s-b member to get nailed by the environmental police for looking at a seal wrong then posting bitching about it on here how the EP took away everything.

[likwid]

Don't need to ask.
Porbeagels have been spotted "inshore" all winter long.

They love them some seals.

As far as populations, if the seal population is gonna bring back the threatened population of alot of larger sharks to where they should be, I'm all for it.

Seals aren't the only thing the "bigger fish" eat.

I remember reading somewhere---don't recall whether if it was here or on FFSW---some orca sightings off Cape Ann this past winter. A seal is just an hors d'oevre to one of those suckers--or a toy

Killer whales are reputed to be among the few creatures who kill for sport in addition to for food.

I was out fishing near halfway rock (think thats the name) between Prudence, Middletonw, Newport, Jamestown, kinds in the bay between all three and a big plump seal showed his head near the boat and stared at us for awhile and then went back down to take all the days catch. When do they move up north again ?
