This fish was a pleasant surprise. The water was clear, and I was focused on looking for other species when I noticed it slowly cruising by. I took a short dive, lined up, and made a clean shot. I didn’t think much of it at first, but later found out it qualified as a record. It wasn’t something I was expecting that day, which made the catch even more memorabl and i’m super happy u could get it.
