About
Swordfishing is a true passion and a specialty for us. These fish are caught in our waters year-round in depths ranging from 1500 to 1900 feet. These spectacular fish definitely live up to their nickname: "Gladiators of the Sea!" We target these fish using specialized heavy equipment. Fighting swordfish, in our opinion, is the most exciting, chaotic, and rewarding fishing experience. That being said, sometimes it can take hours to get a bite. Swordfishing is not a sport for the impatient. Fortunately there is a good chance of catching Mahi-Mahi, tunas, and other species while offshore waiting for a bite! During our trip, on the way to or from the sword-grounds, we may also drop for other species including but not limited to: Golden Tilefish, Barrel Fish, Black-belly Rose Fish. Come experience our favorite thing to do on the water!
