Description
A triggerfish at Cala Santa Galdana on the south coast of Menorca, Spain. The triggerfish was about the size of a large dinner plate in height and about half as much again in length. I was at a depth of 2m when it first grabbed my bright yellow camera housing. Each time it made a grab for my camera, I used my free hand to grab hold of the fish at the base of its tail. It was very powerful and pulled me around in circles. It would back off and then have another go. The encounter lasted for about 10 minutes in total and fortunately I ended up with all my fingers intact. This was the parting shot as I managed to back away from it.
