While fishing for Striped Bass on Long Island Sound, a Seal holds on to Striper with it’s flippers and will not let go playing tug of war as I was reeling the fish in. When lowering the net in the water the seal finally let go and swam away unharmed. Using a Shakespeare Ugly Stick I managed to reel in the Striper weighting 27.5 lbs with Seal weighting approximately 70 plus lbs. holding on to Striper.
