i was fishing at the end of seaham prom last night , just past the steps and there was the remains of one dead rays bream and we had one alive rays bream washed up about 3 lb in front of us.... chucked it back into the sea and never saw it washed up again, so maybe it swam away!!!
cheers

The British record for a rays bream some years back was 7lb-odd, caught on Crimdon beach by a lad from Thornley. Must have been nigh on 40 years ago. Probably not even on the list as a species now.

I think it's 7 1/4 lb Castaway and was I think 1967. I will see if I can find the site and post a link.

Yer i stepped over 2 on Tynemouth beach just before...one was still moving but it had no chance so just left it for some kids and there mother to put back in the water.

I have seen 4 now washed up in about 7 walks along the beaches in our areas since November.

Wish i knew a few trawler lads, would love to know how many they get in the nets and what other strange things they get....i have always fancied having a day out on a trawler and seeing what they drag up.

Wouldn't mind doing that me self would have to be flat though lol.
it was the same last year loads getting washed up or beaching them selves.
