🐟Common bream
De brasem (Abramis brama) is een vis die behoort tot de familie Cyprinidae. Het is een van de talrijkste vissen van Nederland en door zijn gewicht vaak de belangrijkste vis qua biomassa. De maximale lengte is 90 cm. Een Duitse recordvis uit 2000 was 85 cm lang en woog zeven kg. Het Nederlands record met de hengel gevangen brasem staat volgens de BNRZ (Beet Nederlandse Recordlijst Zoetwatervissen) op 77 cm. Deze vis woog 7280 gram. Normale lengten zitten in het bereik van 40 tot 60 cm en brasems boven de 70 cm komen alleen in specifieke omstandigheden met een lage stand aan brasem voor.
