I have had multiple macs get munched like that from sea lions while fly lining...they seem smart enough to come up and yank on it 2-3 times without getting hooked. Seems they do just enough to kill it so that you throw it in...I've started putting these mortally wounded macs back in my bait tank to keep the sea lions from seeing the fruits of their labor.

Yep, agree. No freebies for the thieves. Chumming bait fish only - they deserve it

I was out Sat morning as well. Hooked up 4 times and ended up with 1 yellow. I'll try and post, but I had some Bonita action in about found in 140 ft of water. May have been the culprit.
