Yeah, I've had them do the exact same thing many times too(and same thing with roosters in southern Baja!). Sea lions were not around me at the time. Usually I'll see them in the area approaching or mark them diving/surfacing on the finder. Whatever it was was hitting it in about 5 second intervals before finally running with it. and taking everything but the head. Weight was on the bottom, Mac was about 10" up the line on a short dropper loop
