Stanley' s story begins here in the mouth of Swansea Bay. In June 2004, local fisherman Robert Davies set out as usual in his homemade boat, The Wonky, unaware that he was about to land a monster and himself, in very deep water. What were you actually fishing for at the time? Oh, skate, plaice, bass. Mostly bottomfeeders. Yeah. Bottomfeeders, so anything that swims, you know. Anything that swims. While today' s catch contained nothing more unusual than a discarded tyre, on that particular morning, Robert snared something completely unexpected. I thought, what is that? Is that a dolphin? Or is that a shark? I didn' t really know. There were scales all over his back. It was like a dinosaur, really. So, unable to actually lift a monster fish onto the deck on his own Robert tied it alongside the boat and headed back to shore. Stanley was thought to be a very rare and valuable European Atlantic sturgeon, also known as the British sturgeon. |
