Me and my mate George swimmed for about 100 meters from the boat. It is a deep riffe from 22 meters to 35. It was around 4.00 pm. The surface temperature was 21 Celsious and it was much colder deeper than 20 meters. I made an aguatto and I saw five same sized big dentex. I stoped behind a rock and soon one of them came very close. The shot was very good under the mouth and came out through the gills. I came to the surface where George saw the big fish. We swimmed back to the boat where our other friend Vaggelis Karamanlis waited for us.
