Thanks Chris

Very worthy December winner, now it all starts again

Circulated a press release and had this bac k from Cliff Brown at  Bauermedia

I've reminded Cliff of the paragraph in the release which refers to ID being confirmed by Dr Henderson's team..

Here's the full press release -

RAY BEATS NATIONAL RECORD

Club member boats a large small-eyed ray which, when weighed at sea, was heavier than the national record.

Chris Witheford, the club's official fish recorder, caught the huge ray on 17th December on a trip out of Poole. The fish was weighed at sea before being released and tipped the scales at 17lb 10oz.

Ther ray was photographed in the hands of Oli Drew, a good friend of Chris's It was identified by the team of Dr. Peter Henderson, author of 'Identification Guide to the Inshore Fish of the British Isles'

Stuart Cooper

Press Officer

There lies the problem with social media.

Thanks for your work Stuie and don't let it bother you.
