Two birds, one stone
If we could relocate the seals to the gulf, an d when they have collected enough oil, they'd get cleaned up and sent back out for more..........JK....

So what is the seal situation this years so far????

never saw a grey seal i wouldn't shoot

never had a problem with a harbor seal grabbing a fish

the greys, however, have to go.

seal skin hats, mittens, gloves, coats........

seal jerky, chili, burgers......

where does the tea party stand on seal management?

i'm sure they'd be with us.

they're probably with us on the bird "management" issue too

Fished with seals (I think harbor) the other night and it didn't seem to effect the fishing. They were popping up 10 feet in front of us, to the left, to the right, and behind! This was a first for me. Fortunately there were plenty of fish for all so we didn't care. However, we were worried that someone was going to accidentally hook one and lose some (or all) line.
