thank you good morning we're heading out swordfish and we got Niles and his gang today Kevin's here for some underwater photos Mike's here hope they're gonna go find a swordfish so you guys are along for the ride enjoy [Music] Mission hopefully on some mice could break the ice and get some fresh bait either way thank you they're probably apply mixed bag guys it ain't big but yeah they're right by the motors there yours under you're as large might be this yeah there's five there's some a few keep there's a couple Keepers that my hair that one there that one there might be a keeper borderline turn the handle right he's on there yep you're just coming with us maybe we measure the bigger ones see if any of them keep they're probably keep right I don't know if there's other ones are going to make it or not there might be one or two other Keepers but go and wind on them yeah he's on there there you go and I don't know if he's a key everybody's bigger than the other one next to him we'll see maybe some big ones offshore a couple we'll keep her mind he's out of school there a lot of small ones mixed in yeah but it's almost out there but [Applause] [Music] [Music] first time swordfish in a while we'll get a shot Mike's been out here lately though first time for me in a while beautiful day Mike's trying to get the seaweed up the line there big old clump of weed got on there if you're trying to shake it free I haven't met him a couple times I think we came to this one day for fun but yeah foreign [Music] place all right good luck let us know Captain Greg's out there on cloud nine waiting for a bite as well first drift a lot of weight in Sword fishing you can wait hours a great days let's hope we'll get a shot Captain Greg just hooked up Cloud9 just east of us a little bit deeper than we're sitting so we're sliding out there hopefully our terms coming next there's some decent size or seem like a small one all right good luck get the next one no bites for us yet time to check the baits make sure we're not tangle and make sure there's no squid on there fouled up someone with the blue Rod gets a bite you don't know it you don't see the rod tip but we didn't see nothing on this much I think this one will be all right untouched Mike you guys need a sink or check out Ivan Sinker on Instagram best price around I've been sinkers I've been using swordfish and deep drop and mutton snapper fish and all that stuff unscathed [Music] [Music] try number two yeah hopefully this is the drop these are medium action swordfish Rod use it pretty much every trip down here in the Florida Keys just a little over seven foot long with a butt on it fish a 10 pound stinker most of the time but can do a 12 on it if you want to can do an eight on two but recommended for 10 pounds Florida Keys special there we go there's a water spot out there might get Uncle Greg big one turn it up yesterday there's even a bigger one out here that people saw Mike we saw from the road they were right here on the boat and seen it I hit it oh the first couple times like a very subtle like barely noticed it by that time I moved up and hit it again so we'll see what happens here see if eats it there's one down there seems small but you never know all right Niles who's up he's on there for the time being we're gonna be able to run down on this reel here there's no telling you know if it's a bigger small man he's just heavy kind of digging but okay if you want to just think about it like if you wanted to come towards you you know just roll it towards you if the real like draws my amps will shut off like beep just roll it off then back on okay if he starts filming up fast then we'll go faster on it we'll start speeding up and you'll see the rot if the rod tip goes straight you know he's coming up then he'll go faster but otherwise just like this he's kind of coming steady he's kind of stalling it out hopefully it's so you know good there's no talent but kind of stalling this out now hopefully but it's going to get him coming steady with us and swim up swim with that Sinker and we're not trying to rip them up you know like I just want to come up as if he'll come up easy we'll try to get him up easy piled on the bill you think he was on there then you just ate it now all right sucking under if you guys look at it you can see it dubbing down there whole face look good it was kind of a pile on bite but you never know it could be us go make our day on everybody yeah most City stays on a lot of times the pile on bikes don't really get but now let's see the other one you know here is bring it in I just piled on it's like the billion under but hopefully it's so good hopefully I don't hard to say we're still on there now but slack he's swimming up with it in the back guys we've never seen a swordfish right first time swordfishing all right Niles and the rest you guys have seen them with us I don't know if Josh has but uh We've caught some together over the last I think eight years we fished so hopefully we'll get up back on the board this time very hard to catch two of them at the same time you know because I swim around the boat and hard to do but little luck we'll get one of them a lot of luck we'll get both of them we're getting a tag ready in case you know once I'm juvenile we're gonna let it go love each other tag and release them for the billfish foundation how about for stock assessments and all that growth see where they wind up going if they get caught again fish in the back there he's swimming a sink faster which is a good sign you know because a lot of times a small fish can't swim up so hopefully I'll keep her in the back hopefully so good there's no telling this one doesn't seem like a big one up front but you never know it might be a keeper too and a little bit of luck we'll get one of them I like we'll get both of them no luck we'll get zero so we'll see what happens yeah so have like a strong job but there's so much soft tissue like around like the top of it the side of the hook slide around using a lot of them get foul hooked too so there's really sloppy feeder so that big Bill that hit the bait the hooks will snag them so that one out too just in case got under a thousand I think I see your lines really jerky they're wrapped up so we could break the line on them move the Gap out of the way Lars yeah we'll come out even to come to this one maybe I don't know if it'll reach or not but yeah they're rubbing on each other for sure they got crossed up you want to detach it maybe or no I came up there I'm just gonna put that Rod next to that one and we'll just have to try to figure out which way they are we got a tangle this one here underneath yeah yeah yeah here no no I won't move this Something's Gonna Be heavy yeah two hands on it just go up to the next holder up there wherever it's at hopefully we don't bust them off everybody wants took two until you get tangled up should I pull this one just put tip to tip yeah yeah we want to put them both up there help me grab this thing let me grab it and walk it up here let's put them both up there next to each other see they're wrapped up that's a good idea when you're hooked two stuff but another tangled up we'll see what happens something just changed drastically you can turn that one back on the front there again I think it's on Tang I don't know if the fish is still in there something felt like it gave so that one might have came off it looks like but hopefully one will stay on there at least we didn't break the limes you might see a swordfish swim underneath the boat you guys fail your first time this ever happened but braid got around that main line and cut through it so yeah I broke through the 200 pound leader never seen that before but it got wrapped up and cut it off Jason fish too nice spread on them oh it's a big one that's a freaking 200 plus pounder wow well you wanna that's what they do when they come off they swim in the surface a lot of times fish broke off he's swimming on top there love it he'll get the weight off then he'll speed it back up and the lights the lights slide down the leader you know so you don't stop for like the rubber band you'll pull the little bit and it'll pop through her band so when the leaders get close you know you'll just kind of toggled it now keep going don't stop yet that'll help break the rubber band and don't don't Yank on them or nothing like this just be smooth okay there he is down there shining swordfish he's not big it looks like he might be foul hook but it might be a keeper he's not big and I'll break it yeah you got perfect it's definitely not big but it might be a small keeper well the big one got away but we got a little one go and hold it right there go and turn it off we got one we didn't get skunked up yeah they're tagging a little guy there big one got away we got the small one good thinking I'll cut the line I'm Gonna Save that I messed up we've got the hook out of that little guy I got a release on him he's going back down there hoping to grow up and hopefully we'll catch him again went down he's big getting rear rigged here a little cluster there holds a double header find a hook tough to catching I don't think I've ever Tangled to another break off like that but it just happened first time for everything other fish was a nice one but we're going back down to see what happens we still got time we got one anybody got one's a good day we need a keeper though drop number three a heartbreaker losing that big one you could see him out there you know some of the dorsal fin and tail on top a good fish have only wanted but a little bit of luck we'll get in the show I'm Gonna Keep it we got a one-way tag release when we're still a good day any day you get one's a good day no matter where you're at in the world down we go get another tag ready this tag there's a number on there someone catches that fish they report it to the billfish foundation like I said that fish is called off Armada you know may late May and give an estimated size and see how big it got where it went once probably get hooked up they don't get hooked they're just gonna hit him with their bill it's like I'll just stop it maybe you know three or four times in the way up and just let it sit five seconds or so and although everybody's there you're gonna see that like a little thumping that Rod tip so I've had him hit you know two 300 people above but usually that first few hundred feet so when they if they're gonna bite it they bite it you know no bites on drift number three we're gonna bring them both up and reset and see if we can't get on drift number four bombs away yeah no good tight Center please eat it I hope he eats it no there's one here just the tip kind of grabbed it and thumped it pretty good so whether or not eats it's a different story but hopefully you will put him right there that's him might be a 30 pound right by 300 pounder ain't no telling yep so Bowie's getting light you guys the buoy's starting to sit Higher One might have it he might be swimming up with it so got a little bit lighter this one keeps sitting but it won't eat it it's indicative of a swordfish Billy's definitely getting light it's not higher than it was that's for sure nope yeah crazy yeah keep it out there for a minute there's one on a buoy the buoy got lightest one out there this one just to hit it 10 times see the tip boundary just hasn't ate it but just trying to move it around get them on there see if he sticks might be a small one you never know though I've been full before might be him right there there he is we're tight loading up two double header bites two shots of doubles yeah I would just bring that dolphin is it dolphin right in or no I just don't want to run it over we don't want to tangle up again everybody last time but we may leave the one fish out there trying to focus on this one to start but I don't think this is a big fish by any means so I mean maybe it's a keeper but it did take a little line down deep I just don't know if it was fouled or something but he I didn't back it up and he ran about 50 to 100 feet of line don't tell him when you get a swordfish bite could be 30 pounds could be two three hundred pounds yeah we fish a long time hard to catch a double header we get two shots today though now we'll see you got to be careful around the boat there Kevin likes to dive in with them and shoot some killer photos there I got some videos over the years and I always like to hack make sure they're worn out or tired you got them you know under control you don't want to swim with my life anymore they could kill you and this we'll take it nicely if this one comes up first you know like he's a keeper I think small keeper yeah there you go yeah Mike we got tight the old swordfish got a keeper one for dinner yep streaks alive now smoke that bait who rigged that we eat some grapes now we hit the banana get rid of the bad luck hooked another double header we got one on the boat now keeper not a big fish 49 inches but fresh swordfish can't beat it why would you go to the market and buy a commercial caught fish same size when you catch a fresh one yourself so we're gonna eat that one we got one here with Lars up here and see what happens with it I got a few more grip sheets and there's no time this might be a nice fish so I think it's foul hook but hopefully stays on there really good so yeah can't see him yeah no telling how big he is yeah but you should see color any second lights are coming up you're gonna see this fish soon it's not a monster but he's foul hooked on top of the head looks like another keeper though maybe no you're okay just keep coming let's see if we do that's good right there hold it right there I hooked right in the door still put them on in the boat here and measure them and see where your tape's out at I think it's gonna be a small Keepers fish with fat Hook and the dorsal finally kind of drown coming up here oh is he really yeah you know not moving I'm trying to get his head to go down it's kind of lifeless you usually would have let him go because we got to keep her there but keeper 49. okay if it was live we let him go you guys but he's uh laying out there floating belly up you know we're trying to get velvet camera shoot pictures and yeah guys we're gonna take them drifting on this drift about an hour no sword by step but Mike just saw Mahi kind of jumping out there hopefully he'll come and find her about who nobody's yet though I'm here he's got it now he's eating now open the bill Tire cranking lots of cranking there you go good job Hank Wine Fest there you go mahion yeah we're gonna use the rod like a cane pull man yeah oh taken line tip down low a couple of miles on we got underneath the boat on her but we'll get him out hopefully yeah there's one more straight back Lars but you really want to break that beak off the Ballyhoo next time there you go come on my eyes there you go throw them in the wells don't get blood everywhere guys there you go a couple more miles we'll take it there you go Lars is tight in the back there you go time to call it a day no no bites the last couple drifts but got three swords so great day unfortunately the bigger one got away but uh got a few mahi's to go with that too so beautiful day out here a lot of fun we're gonna head back to Bud Mary's now clean up some fish and uh probably cook a little bit for dinner here the next couple nights so we'll see you guys back [Music] we have made it back to Bud Mary's time to clean some fish pleasure meeting you and thanks for watching all the videos on that stuff so if you guys like fishing too right okay you might read my agreement perfect so a couple stores not big ones but Keepers we lost one good one so why but now it sounds like September October so that's me perfect back of the dock fish unloaded a few mahi's a couple swords tag one big one got away unfortunately but a couple keeper sized fish and last one was up to the dorsal fence we kind of drowned but uh we're gonna eat them and we're gonna be happy they're gonna build some up and Smiles on those buddies and we're taking a little bit home too so let's get to playing this fish was just you know right about 50 inches not a big one but a keeper we don't grow them we just try to catch them we always want to try to get one for dinner you know I'd rather us catch it than send these guys to go get fish from a commercial boat you know and not big ones here but big enough and it'll be fresh and good ice down and the second fish there you know is another small eagle fish but he was hooked in a dorsal fin so he drowned so no point to let that fish go and speed into the crabs the sharks so that's why we kept that second one we had the right one on you know we had a that first one that came off that we hooked that double header we could see him thinning out there because it's from a nice spread on his dorsal in his tail he's probably 150 plus maybe maybe 200 but Heartbreaker got away unfortunately but this is going to be in beautiful meat and check that out there fresh steaks there absolutely beautiful Prime Shoreline there a little bit of belly slime here so we'll scrape this off some people cut this off I usually cook it with this inner liner on there beautiful swordfish meat right there don't get no fresher you know iced them down we bled them out and gonna be yummy no doubt about it swordfish is pretty soft meat so they actually cut pretty easy you love and it's been a boss man this is actually Sadie's favorite fish to eat she loves eating swordfish so you gotta watch the Mercury content so you don't want to eat it every day but I'll probably get it once a week and it'd be fine we'll see what he's eating you guys let me know so a few little fish so no squid right now but some little fish in there like that let's see those things so that's what they're down there eating the captain's cut for dinner okay take some home with the girls and feed them they'll be happy through the eye of the sword did you guys fish yesterday yeah did you guys get the blue marlin oh you did congratulations they got a blue marlin with tanning with Matt yes sir Matt was my old mate hope he didn't hope they didn't talk too bad about me but uh but I got a blue monster congratulations so I think I've I've been here my whole life I think I'm alive three or four here my entire life so very few and far between I've lost you know probably another six or seven but congratulations who got it who was the angler okay cool awesome yeah almost done the last piece of mahi cut a scan off take the bone out feed the tarpon he's like a little kid over here feeding all the fish you know feeding the tarpon never gets boring it's always exciting watching them biting eating stuff like that so yep smack and hold it then they'll come right up to you there you go oh he's thinking about it I was feeding these big giant lemon sharks in there and I didn't see this thing come back around I think we're seven foot long and ate this my hand without a lot of small but I mean it could have jumped out and got my hand I didn't see it come I want to come around a freaking 300 pound or a couple months ago congratulations on the first swords there good seeing y'all good seeing you good job of the Mah he's there pleasure fishing with you that wraps it up they're going home they got plenty of fish for dinner a few meals got a little

standfishing.com got our Cotton shirts on our hats our performance shirts go check them out there this one's for Kevin Herron really cool piece of artwork right here I'm gonna show you guys that in a minute check this shot out I'm here with Kevin Dodge one of my friends the great underwater photographer awesome swordfish picture here these are available now it's a perfect size print for the house for the office and this swordfish picture is on the wrap of my boat so it's my favorite shot and Kevin's gonna tell you a little bit about it and how you guys can get one okay guys this is a 30 by 20 inch aluminum piece turn it over everything comes with it the bracket right away the screws even a leveler put it on um look I'm the fool that gets in the water on these things these are very dangerous but Nick's the one that actually gets me there so it's a group effort I've signed it and Nick signed the piece we're doing a run of a hundred of these and this is the first one going to Nick so there's 99 left it's a really nice piece for a really good price click the link below if you guys want to get one and uh I think it look good in the house or in the office cool right the aluminum frame all that stuff and it looks so sharp so first one's going they saw it I said they want it it's my personal one but I get number two so where's it where's it going back to or you know what triple after they got the blue marlin on tan man yesterday first marlin ever right yeah no you know where to go there you go Matt's melodate they had fun with them and uh congratulations and they just got the first print here from Kevin and awesome well Charles house here jumping in the pool got a nice slab of swordfish there we're gonna do something a little bit different I don't really ever cook with avocado oil I want to try it got some avocado oil right there got some salt and pepper the usual this fresh swordfish especially gets then we're gonna hit it with a little bit of key lime juice when we're done here you know right at the end right we're cooking it and that's you can't beat that like I said these were not big swordfish but uh they were keepers are illegal and we kept the first one always like to keep on eat the second fingers hooked in the door so he drowned so instead of letting him go and he was not swimming at all the leader try to keep him those guys to eat them but we're gonna cut these not too thin you know you want about an inch wide because if you go too thin you know you're overcooking overcooked swordfishes no good so cutting right through here like that let's see we'll get two more out of here we'll get these going here we're gonna do some sides and stuff like that this will be nice that was a fun day now the fishnails and his family and friends there for I think eight years now and uh there's a brand new bottle here at Charles house a little avocado oil on these guys we're gonna rub all this in here it's a beautiful day here now Morata gorgeous weather get all these things lathered up here now I was hoping to feed Sadie because said he loves swordfish it's one of her favorite sheep but she went with Madison and James and Michelle for a couple days with Claire so Madison used to help take care of the kids there last summer you know great helping if you know what we're coming to Keys let's hang out with the kids for a few days so they took the kids from us they're gone for a couple days but we're gonna enjoy this here south so a little salt and pepper right here get these going and we'll season the other side once it's on the grill then we'll hit them just with the uh oh this is gonna be hot here listen to the sizzle and then we will hit them on the other side here once we get the other things going as well first time cooking on this flat top but Charles did some uh Chicken on the other night and it was delicious so the dogs are jumping the pool they're going crazy and we'll get this going and the key is not to overcook itself we'll see you guys in about two minutes when we flip them over here probably four or five minutes at most so you can see the meat there you can see the coloration is getting cooked there so we're going to flip this one right here and I've never cooked on this so might need a little more oil but oh look at that that looks good there this one's a little bit thicker let's do one of these other thin ones right here oh look at that it's gonna be good you guys and we're gonna hit this with a little bit of key lime I'm gonna hit this little Key West key lime juice right here so what is it lime juice Key West lime juice get a little Key West lime juice right here this will be really good you guys I love lime on oh man on fish oh time to get it off you guys it's gonna be good let's see what it looks like well that looks good let's see this the next thin piece here bring my dog back let's see now one trick about swordfish and see if it's done or not you can grab the skin if the skin peel something I was done not peeling up yes let's give these like maybe another 30 seconds then we'll peel them off Frank the Tank's going down I know you guys been missing them oh yeah that thing was swimming what four hours ago pretty much you guys caught them earlier today it is hot burned my finger but exactly super white meat there avocado oil salt and pepper some lime juice on it it's hot I'm not gonna cool down for a second what'd you think good or too hot juicy if I ate good stuff like this I wouldn't be as bad as I am though don't get no pressure not juicy you don't want to drive swordfish very moist they're very juicy and very good let's get these other ones off now too they're definitely done let's get some more opinions there you know frankly eat anything you said it was good I said it was good too let's go get Mr Charles opinion Charles come try this hot swordfish now we could get the dog's opinion but we don't need that now this is a little hot this piece is probably cool up here this piece yeah that's probably the better piece to take a piece out of now let us know what you think or tell the viewers how it tastes you know if it's good tastes like it was caught yesterday it's good it's very good very good Darren plain and simple you got salt pepper we got two more victims over here it is a little hot to be careful eating the whole thing you just nah you can grab a piece and try it off we just want to get a little taste test here and then we'll get back to our evening so Sarah that was a little bit thinner piece you know it might be cooked to tab more but I think it's still gonna be juicy and good exactly even this is already done yeah it's good not bad yeah well done Nick never okay peel it off the skin there now I've seen some people eat the skin I don't eat it I washed my and my auntie at one time she was chewing it up but wow what'd you think decent you ever had swordfish before no first time ever it doesn't get much fresher we cut this thing this is the first one that he's ever caught all right Cooper's opinion all right let's get Cooper's opinion he's gonna feed the dog there and this will really tell you [Music] have you had swordfish before okay we're here Dakota's opinion to see all right so we are looking for a flat top sponsorship I mean if anybody's got a flat top out there and wants to pay some money we'll take it we'll use it we'll let you know if it works or not avocado oil salt and pepper some lime juice and he's trying to sell the viewers like he caught it today like two hours ago like he fished yeah it was a rare occurrence I went fishing very rare dude I don't remember how to drive a boat it's been so long I was like which way is land thank God for a GPA all right well that wraps up you want more
