8 dolphins beached themselves at Sea Isle City today. All 8 have died. Witness said they were frantic swimming back and forth, then went over the bar directly into the beach ! Survey was taking place just offshore for the OSW project.

It's hard to accept that this is OK in any form. Is this normal? Have we EVER seen this before? As anglers, we know all too well what it's like to be treated as second-class citizens. But this, the approved killing of thousands of dolphins and whales, the commercialization of our once beautiful coastline, is by far the most devastating we've ever seen. The fact that this train cannot be stopped is both frustrating and saddening at the same time.
Our once beautiful coast will soon be a thing of the past. There is no sugarcoating it; nothing will be the same.
I have little doubt that this will be considered one of the worst environmental decisions our blind and money-hungry politicians have given us. In the meantime, we continue to witness the massacre of these magnificent creatures in numbers we have never seen. Very sad.
