On a reef outside the "Queimada Islands", on a calm, windless day. The water was clear, 15m visibility, and good temp, 23°C. On the first immersion of the day, a school with hundreds of fish came to me as I went down. I chose the biggest one and shot. The fish sped off, taking all the line, and stretching the bungee. Equipment used was a Riffe 120 euro, with slip tip, Sepctra float line + bungee and 3atm float. Which quickly tired the fish, making it possible to embark without major difficulties
