I agree it's amazing to watch the first time you see it--but next time you head out there might not be any pogies left!

The pogy boats have been a heated topic over the past couple of years...do a little research and you can find lots of info. People get very emotional about it, understandably.

The voice you heard on the loud speaker might have been from the plane above the boats that was spotting the schools of fish for the netting boat. The plane tells them where and when to set (I was there too yesterday, I couldn't watch...it makes me sick)
