Another swordfish recapture with @thebillfishfoundation! We tagged and released this swordfish back in August 2017 off Islamorada, FL and it just got re caught off Jupiter, FL in January 2020! Always good to know a fish survives when we tag and release them and nice to see a steady rate of growth. #thebillfishfoundation @pelagicgear">@pelagicgear">#thebillfishfoundation @pelagicgear #pelagicworldwide @yeti">@yeti">#pelagicworldwide @yeti #builtforthewild #swordfish #tagandrelease

Swordfish Jump action from last month. With all the wind the past few days we’ve had to cancel all our recent swordfish trips. Hoping it calms down soon. #swordfish #stanzswordfishrod #stanzgaff
