This is the question everyone asks when a seal arrives in your fishing ground is it a good sign or a bad......does he chase the fish away or is he there for the Abundance of fish....
Has Anyone got a theory on this one..
Steve..

Hi Steve & Steve,
ya mate if I see a seal I usually assume I've picked my venue right i.e. there's fish there - the bluddy seal wouldn't be there otherwise would he - in fairness that's his livelihood so to speak.
Only on one or two very rare occasions have I seen fish feed in the presence of a seal; I think they can smell him or sense him but my general rule of thumb is if there's a seal about the fishing will be very very poor. I'd usually turn around and go home if it looks like he's not moving away
