seals were not part of the equation way back then in the numbers that exist today.....
yet they are never mentioned or their take considered by the counters and marine biologists as if they don't exist.
why is that.... no money in their pockets?  |

But they can estimate how many lbs of fish recreational fisherman keep yearly.The entire system is broken.Top to bottom.The explosion of seals in the cape should be added into the equation.They probably take close to what the comms do daily but without size or number limit.There was a reason men used to kill them in the early years.They destroy the local fishery.So yes Seals are exploiting the local bass fishery and not being accounted for. |

1) It doesn't matter that 1 or 3 or 10 guys can find them. EVERYONE should be able to.
2) 18 to 24" are not little fish. 12 to 14" are little fish. 10 years ago there were schools of them miles long in RI. I remember the water boiling with millions of little guys feeding on peanuts from Watch Hill Light to Charlestown.
3) Are you tryig to say there is no problem????? |
No boat, back in the suds.

nope just saying i cant find big fish. Kind of making a joke... sorry if that wasn't the time or place.
That said, last year I experienced football field boils in early Sept up our rivers here, all very small bass. It was pretty amazing. |
