We had one climb up our stern ramp to get away from killer whales that had tried getting it. He didn’t want to get off, but was persuaded with a fish pew. Figure it was an Orca as it was a little torn up? They followed the cod end up A couple times as the gear came up to eat the fish that fell out.
Also heard of a Captain that shot a sea lion once back in the early 80s, but that was 2nd hand info. Knowing the captain, it happened.
That was orcas following the cod end up, not sea lions.
