Why has the fishing from the Cape beaches declined so much?

They heard I was coming and got scared.
Fo rizzy, do the math. Find out how many lbs of fish seals eat in a day. Then multiply that by the estimated number of seals. Then multiply that by 120. There is your answer.

Bruce, just the thought will make you sick again. Why drive past the canal?

The seals are folllowing the fish into the canal also. Just a matter of time before they establish a community in Buzzards Bay and Sandwich. Last year they came in with the herring and hung around all season. It was common to compete with them at the west end.

It will never again happen - but!!! Bring back the bounty.

If the seals are there then you can estimate that their is an abundant amount of food to sustain them or else they would move on.I'm no expert but i would venture to guess its a cycle as nature has a way of balancing things out in the end its just how long the cycle will last.
