The best fisherman

This chap knows a thing or two.

Mooching about Morro Bay the other evening and what do I see?

Why, the very best fisherman there is, and he uses no rod or reel.

Wander out to the central California Pacific coast any evening and you will see whole squadrons of these experts, trolling for an easy meal.

Once I saw maybe fifty or so, all hovering at twenty feet, then executing a power dive, wings back, and swimming underwater after their prey. I often get the feeling we have learned little from the animal world.
