As we chatted more and more, I noticed that none of them knew they actually could catch lots of fish in the reservoirs as well. They didn't even know freshwater fishing is possible on this tiny and dry Mediterranean island. To be honest, it didn't surprise me.

They simply attack them if there is a little bird bathing or swimming. But this one is very different. Giant Trevally in tropical flats chase the birds to catch them as part of their speed and hunting games. They don't actually eat them.

My Name is Fish but I never attack the birds like these GTs. Enjoy one of the greatest show from the azure water...
