The British bream record has been well and truly broken by Mark McKenna with a stunning fish of 22lb 9oz. This beats the previous best bream weight by a huge leap of 2lb 15oz.

He caught the massive bream - which Mark and fishery bailiffs think is exactly the same fish as the previous record - from Ferry Lagoon in Cambridgeshire while fishign for carp.

Captor Mark, who comes from Herefield, Middlesex and owns Baitcraft, took the specimen on one of his own T1 pop-up boilies intended for carp.

The fish was weighed on Mark's set of Fox Digital scales and weighed again upon the bailiff's scales to double check its huge bulk.

My mate got a 6 pound bream the other week and it was like a bin lid

22 pound is unbelievable that must of taken some pulling in

fcuk can you imagine the mess in your landing net from that slimey fcuker.... !!!!!!!!!!!!!! they really are the slippest fish in the water, takes ages to get rid of the mess they leave behind.

nice fish though, fattened on boilies

Yeah I bet it left his net matt and self all snoty. what a cracking weight though.
