The Guyana Chronicle caught up with the seamen at the seashore along the lower East Coast of Demerara in the vicinity of the University of Guyana Road, who had hours ago returned from a fishing expedition and were lucky to receive a big payday with the 250-pound catch of a Dew fish among other catches.

The men could not give the exact location at sea where the catch was made. Shouting to this reporter on the seawall from the ocean top the men after realising that this reporter had in his possession a camera informed that “Yall just miss big news”
The men went on to indicate that they just sent in a fish weighing 700 pounds and we could get a shot of the fish by visiting the fishing establishment behind the Ruimveldt Police Station.
However, upon arrival at Ruimveldt, it was discovered that the fish was not as big as the men described but it was indeed a huge catch of 250 pounds.
