During this summer I had seen this fish group a few times at that spot. They were always very shy and never got close enough for a shot. At the day I managed to land the fish, water temperature was about two degrees Celsius higher than usual. Fish were more active and after a long dive where I moved between two different hiding spots underwater, I managed to place a shot at the gills of the fish and drag it to the surface.
