Miss Behavior - 8/31/12

With such calm seas, it was time to make that run in search of that swordfish I have been wanting to catch.

Left the dock Friday shortly after 6 PM in my vessel, Miss Behavior.

100 nautical miles later… crew was seasick, but I wasn’t.

Dropped two lines around 10:15 pm, and next thing you know,

FISH ON!!!

'cause that’s how I roll. :slightly_smiling_face:

I grabbed the rod and held on to what wound up being a 3 hour battle of wills.

The fish did not fit in the box nor the bag.

Fortunately, we had 550 lbs of ice and were able to keep the fish covered.

My first swordfish,

And Glenn’s first (and second) gaff,

OK I’m sold. I think I will have to make a sword trip sometime soon.

GREAT job! First a yellowfin and now a Swordfish! You ROCK!

Now lets hear the critics!

Nice

Very nice! Looks like you’ll be eating swordfish steaks for a while.

Awesome!!!

fyi next time gut the fish, wrap it in a blue tarp and stuff the belly with ice while covering the fish with a wet towel. You can keep the fish cold for many hours with only a few 20lb bags of ice. The best part is the tarp will easily pack.
