That's a nice fish. I'm curious, did you get a chance to weigh it? I'm thinking well over 100lb.

Scale said 135 but we had his head dragging on the ground. I'am guessing about 150

Great job to Eric for bringing in a nice swordfish. We almost spooled a 50-wide, but thanks to Stella power, he was able to bring it aboard. Now we get to enjoy the great steaks from his catch!

Just some food for thought for next time...you could have taken a length of rope, hung it on the scale, zeroed it out and then used the rope to tie the bill up toward the tail. We have done it a couple times on other scales for long fish on a low scale.

Thanks Joe, We were so tired we thought about using a rope later. We just wanted a quick weigh and get back to the boat to clean the fish and the boat

Eric - Nice fish!
I know your freezer is packed with yellowfin. I have some room in my big freezer if you need it for the swordfish.
