Eleuthera (Bahamas), March 2017.
A nice African Pompano caught with a surface lure.
An amazing topwater attack and more than 20 seconds of unstoppable run and a very hard fight. 
Then a very difficult fish landing because the high position on the rocks. We have tried many time with the boga-grip unsuccesfully and at the end my gopro and my cap flew in the sea :-D (both retrieved by Fabian hooking them with a lure). 
At the end the situation has been fixed by Gabriele (the guy on the right on the last pic) who dove at the sea and grabbed the fish by the tail, landing it with Fabian. Considering how many big sharks we have seen in the area an uncommon bravery. 
A very nice team work.
