If it is, it's the biggest one I have ever seen :D But I don't think it is.
Good looking country side.
I caught this one from brackish water in Stockholm, Sweden last month (September 2010) while on a business trip there. It is at least 3 lbs:
It's spelled the same as our bream, but it's pronounced "breem". Young ones are called "skimmers" and look nothing like the adults. They are a very popular fish all over Europe.
The one you got is a nice one. I think the world record is around 16 pounds.
There are probably more than two. The word "bream" comes from the French word "breme". The English then adopted the French term. It looks like whatever lands the French and English colonized, they pegged a local fish with the name "bream". There's an Australian bream that's very popular (they even have a tourney trail similar to our bass fisherman), and I'm pretty sure there's at least one African fish that is called a "bream".
did it taste like a blue gill?
crazy fish! Nice pictures,
