A fisherman trawling for lemon sole caught one of the gold-striped bream in his nets and saved it. Not knowing what it was, he took pictures and looked on the Web. When he discovered it was a sarpa salva, he said:
Now [that] I realize what it was and the effects it can have, perhaps I should have taken it into town to sell to some clubbers
The last time a sarpa salva was caught in British waters was 1983. Some experts believe global warming is to blame for the bream's northern appearance.
