crying: Most I've seen at the Gurnet. They're big and fat, I wonder what's on the menu.

Squid kids Dad 03-04-2008 07:02 PM

WOW !!!!!:fury:

Cranium 03-04-2008 07:32 PM

yup been getting worse every year. Last year they were in the beach channel by the first crossover. Those rocks, and around the corner used to hold some good fish, but since the seals been hit or miss. plus you have to use some pretty long spikes on your shoes to stand on a seal.

BigFish 03-04-2008 08:14 PM

BigFish said it 3+ years ago after they decimated the Cape.....I knew they were coming!:crying:

Cranium 03-04-2008 08:23 PM

whats up BF?

BigFish 03-04-2008 08:26 PM

The seal population on the south shore I guess? They suck! How you doing Cranium?;)

Cranium 03-04-2008 08:32 PM

If only we could create some crazy rabid four foot piping plover that eat seals. That would be worth the beach closures. nothing larry, started turning again.

BigBo 03-04-2008 08:59 PM

Next thing will be the Capt John boats running Seal Watch Cruises like they're doing on the Cape. :af:

Cranium 03-05-2008 07:40 AM

maybe, capt john is under new management. from what I hear they are going to make some changes.

Fishsmith,

Where is the picture of you with your aluminum billy club? Or do you prefer wood, or wrist rocket?:laugha::laugha:

fishsmith 03-05-2008 11:12 AM

Beamie, I called up my canadian friends, as soon as the blood dries, fresh seal pelts will be in the classifieds. :nailem:

I guess they've always been there, but for me, this is the most I've seen, and they're not as skittish as years past.

When folks are getting spooled live lining macks this spring, chances are it's not a record setting bass it's these fat fooks.

You guys made me pull my video out from the dark and share with you what happens to our seal friends.It's becoming a classic quick.Click and enjoy.


Seal Madness


Didn't think I'd be pulling it out so early in the season.

beamie 03-05-2008 04:22 PM

That's a pissa video. Just like Bass and Blues pushing pogies. Don't think orcas ever get up this way though. I saw one ine the Pacific about a 12 days out of the Canal about 5 years ago.

I'm hoping they start to migrate up here with great whites.Attachment 26235

Sgt_Nutz 03-05-2008 08:08 PM

I battled one of those "ba$tages" over a pogey right at that spot last fall from the boat. Had him half way to the boat too. You should have seen all the boats in the area watching me going backwards with the rod bent over.... :bl: Of course it never occurred to me at the time what I would do if I actually got him to the boat. :fishslap:

Gunpowder 03-05-2008 10:13 PM

maybe they will open up the fur trade again :hihi:

luds 03-05-2008 10:18 PM

Hopefully I'll be old and boat bound before they make it up here but I doubt it. :bsod:

I am not sure where you are but didn't one get stuck in a tidal pool a year or two ago out on the cape..,,, 14ft Great White I think,,,


Excellent Video,,,, The ending was awesome,,,,

Adam_777 03-06-2008 07:24 PM

The cape needs more great whites to police up the seal infestation.Then some plover eating mammals to take over the beaches early in the season.

I caught one of them in Scorton Creek last year. They were not chasing herring -just bass.:cens:
