Joshua,this was a family of five. with 3 rambunctious pups. The amt of fish they consume is not even funny! The next day after cleaning the pond up of it's fish supply they moved on. They swim thru the canals ( ,which is drinking water! ) to another source of fish. They swim inland from the delta.
Here is a spotting of them consuming the cat fish!

Nice spotting! I've been trying to find Otters around the bay area for a while.
