I was diving in my usual spot, it was early, clear and warm water, I dived down to 18 meters and saw a massive seabass really deep, I wasn't ready because it was my first dive so I came back to surface hopping the get a better preparation and go and get that Bass. I dived down again and there was absolutely no fish witch I found strange, so I kept going deeper and then I saw around one big rock this Meagre, she was huge, alone and very slow, I went to the other side of the rock and waited for her, she came in, head first and very calm, I shot her just behind the head at 25,6 meters deep and the dive was 1 minute 38 seconds
