We were palnned to dive on 26 th of may in yalova - sea of Marmar. There was saliva called musilage. The sea was so bad that there was hardly any visibility. My buddy was waiting for me on the shore . I started to hunt in my usual range. After several dives ( Agachons ) I couldn't have any fish. I dived for the last time while I was just giving up . At 4 meters in 35 seconds the Labrax fish ( Seabass ) came from the right. I did not not understand the exact weight because of the blurred water. After shooting the fish , the reel rope was opened a little and started to get over . I noticed that this was the biggest fish of my life,
