Observation details
All in floating rafts. All year classes present but mainly 4th and 3rd cyl. Haven’t seen this before, very compact rafts and not interested in scraps I threw at them. Terns and LAGUs in tight flocks as well and pretty much segregated. One raft had 75 HEGUs and I took boat out of gear 100’ feet from them and started throwing small fish pieces; the birds never budged. Large numbers of gulls will hang around shrimp boats but I didn't see any and they probably aren't dragging so close to the full moon.
