A school of about 20-40 permit came flying across the top of the wall. The vis was great, about 200 feet, so I was able to dive and make it down just as this fish peeled off from the school. I took about an 8-10 foot shot with the Guerrilla Sling and stoned it dead. Pulled it up with the reel line.
