Islamorada, FL
It’s no secret any more – fishing for Swordfish in broad daylight is proven to be just as, if not more productive than fishing in the dead of night. Pelagic Pro Team Captain Nick Stanczyk, along with his father and uncle, pioneered the sport of daytime swordfishing.
Earlier this week, Capt. Nick hooked a monster just 30-miles offshore from Islamorada in the Florida Keys. The angler, John, who just retired from the military, fought the beast for over five hours before finally boating the whopping 455-pound Broadbill Swordfish. This impressive catch dragged Capt. Nick’s B ‘n M some 11-miles during the course of the fight. This incredible fish is the biggest sword weighed-in at the famed Bud ‘N Mary’s Marina, and is likely right up there with the biggest ever caught on rod and reel in the Florida Keys.
