@esealinfo4u Well, I am headed down there anyway in about 6 days. I didn't have my heart set on getting a fight on film but your footage is great. I do a show about travel. I am working on the pilot episode right now. I am doing a travelogue about California Highway 1 from Carmel to Morrow Bay. I'd love to see more of your footage, though

why was one belly floppin and the other backing up?

@FullOfSomething They were both huge bull elephant seals...belly-floppin can be part of an aggressive display....backing up is what they do to either get in a better position to strike again or to get out of range of the other one.

@avidmoviefan
This lengthy fight took place in January 2011 on a beach just south of the official viewing area by the Piedras Blancas lighthouse.

@esealinfo4u So it's San Simeon. I was there in January and I didn't get any shots of them fighting. I am headed back there in about 7 days to get more film. I hope i can get some footage like this. Thanks.

@avidmoviefan I hate to say it....but most of the BIG males are gone...and the few that are left don't look as though fighting is much of an option. The mating season is just about done....and the males are heading out to feed and regain strength.
