I had seen this fish before, but never gave me a shot. On a shipwreck, 36 to 38 meters deep I was on my lucky day. The fish was in the sand, beside the wreck. When he saw me, he tried to get inside the ship, but my shot was very good, behind the eyes, not allowing the fish to enter the wreck. For one of these coincidences of life, on this day I was with the friend who was the holder of the previous record: 29.5kg.
