seals, seals,seals
10,000 yes 10,000 seals eating 3-5% of their body weight a day = 400,000 # of fish/dayX365 =..... uh... a really big number. look at it this way, the mass comm quota is 1.1 million lbs. thats less than 3 days of seal food. most of the time fish (bass+ blues) don't dare to venture into water less than 20 ft. their too easy to catch. we also seen them work cooperatively like humpbacks or killer whales. some corral the fish and they take turns darting through them picking them off bluedevil just saw them doing this on his last walk out to the hump. lose the seals and the fish will live along the beach again. time for my xanax again.
