EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Venomous Catch: Shrimp Fisherman Bob Dickinson's Net Yields a Surprising Catch in Morecambe Bay, Cumbria, 1993" 2.. In the unpredictable waters of Morecambe Bay, Cumbria, during the 1990s, local shrimp fisherman Bob Dickinson was in for a shocking discovery. As he hauled in his net filled with the day's catch of shrimps, he was surprised to find an unusual inhabitant among them - a venomous weaverfish. Morecambe Bay, with its vast tidal sands and rich marine life, is known for its diverse and abundant seafood, including shrimps and various shellfish. However, an encounter with a venomous weaverfish was an unexpected addition to Bob's daily routine. 3. The weaverfish, also known as Trachinotus weberi, is a rare and venomous species native to the Atlantic and Indian Oceans. These fish are characterized by their long, slender bodies and distinctive dorsal and anal fins, which resemble the weaving of a basket. Weaverfish are known to hide in the sandy bottoms of the seabed and ambush their prey with a powerful sting from their venomous spines. 4. As Bob carefully extracted the weaverfish from his net, he knew he had stumbled upon a unique find. With a sense of awe and curiosity, he documented the encounter, capturing the moment on film. This photograph, taken in 1993, showcases the unexpected and diverse marine life that can be found in the waters of Morecambe Bay. 5. The discovery of the venomous weaverfish in Bob's net serves as a reminder of the unpredictability and richness of the marine ecosystem in Morecambe Bay. Despite the potential danger, Bob continued his shrimping activities, knowing that each day could bring a new and exciting catch. This photograph stands as a testament to the beauty and mystery of the coastal waters of Cumbria.
