had a phone call from a cousin walking dogs along cambois beach,the dogs came across 2 large fish that he had never seen,went down and one was well savaged by whatever but the other was fresh as a daisy still had sea lice on.probs about 4lb,what a shame loverly fish.what causes these to beach themselves and die is a shame.didnt have camera so no photos,shame as it was a bar of silver.

I don't think anyone really knows why they do it - they just do, bit like whales and dolphins beaching I think. Strange

Perhaps the Germans put them there, bit like towels on sun loungers by the pool......Comment

one theory is that they follow a warm current to our shores and when they come right in because of their shape they can't swim properly in shallow water and they flop over and are washed ashore.AlanComment
