Sad sight yesterday

[keeperreaper]

We saw some of those furry pricks 10 plus miles off Ptown tuna fishing. I hope they get smoked by a shark. They have ruined one of the best fisheries Chatham and the back beaches.

Bring back the bounty!!! A rifle in every fishermans vehicle. It would still take years to cull the bastards out.
Doc 77 - You wouldn't say that after catching large and ending up with a fish head.

While fishing 5-6 miles off of Peaked Hill on Monday, saw 4 or 5 seals in about 155-165 feet of water. I've rarely seen seals in those water depths. There is so much bait around, the colony is only going to get larger. I don't hate seals, but it's time to do something.

Those of you who fish the race (from beach or boat) whens the last time you saw window pane or skate? Their disappearance maps to the presence of seals to the year. Seals impacting cod stocks too, both in terms of predation and parasites. How can you manage one species at the expense of another?
