Spearer was diving with three others and saw a large school of Margate. Swimming away from the school was an extremely large Margate. She shot the fish and it swam into the rocks. She then had to put another spear into the fish in order to allow her to use wire cutters to release the ensnared cable and tip and pull the fish out with the second spear.
