There was nothing exceptional or extraordinary about the day. It was our first day on the water diving since the new year. The water temp was 58F and there was 4-5ft of visibility. Michelle was driving the ski and I was in the water swimming down the piers of the CBBT. On the third set of piers I came across the first fish which provided an easy broad side shot. We were both ecstatic when we saw the size of the fish on the surface and even more surprised at the scale.
