After shooting 2 potential World Records 1 at Alex rock and 1 at Alex wreck I went down on my marker buoy at Alex wreck looking for Short fin Pompano’s ,as soon as I saw the wreck and was right above it I saw 4 or 5 Pompano’s swimming around I took a shot at the nearest to me hoping it will be above the 10Lbs to claim a World Record it was a great shot with no fight to bring it up and get on the boat , once we got to the marina and weighed it it was 5.7 kg 12.5 Lbs
