I lost three fish and three rigs to seals last night up in Truro. One hit was a seal went right out of the undertow and grabbed my grounded fish! And all this is at night. You cannot escape these bastards. They will find your fighting, struggling fish as surely as a fish can zero in on your hooked and compromised menhaden bait in a school of thousands.
And this idea of letting a seal chomp away on your fish and then reeling back your saved plug and an uneaten fish head doesn't work for me. I followed one of the bastards along the beach for 20 minutes waiting for this to happen. When it took a U-turn and headed out to sea, I patiently spooled out almost all my working line before I gave up and socked it to him. Then it socked it to me back...
