Friday Night Swordfishing trip was a blast last night out of Fort Lauderdale

The swordfish put up a good fight and everyone was jubilant that we finally got one. Fish was about a hundred pounder, 91″ overall. It’s not everyday that we can go out there and come home with an 8 foot fish. When we got back, we filleted the fish up and everyone that went got to take lots of swordfish filets home for dinner.

Fort Lauderdale Swordfishing Private Charter- Success Again!

The fish hit at about 11:30PM and took a huge run of line. He definetly didn’t come in easy, thats for sure. Fortunately for us, the fish got hooked right in the perfect spot: the corner of the mouth. Swordfish are notorious for getting off because the hook pulls through their soft jaws. Well this one was hooked good and after a grueling 25 minute fight, we got the fish in. The angler who caught him had never caught a swordfish before, but he took instruction from the crew great and got the fish in within record time. Continue reading

Great Friday Night Swordfishing trip out of Fort Lauderdale on the Catch My Drift

The Friday Night Swordfishing trip is BACK!!! and better than ever! We had a couple weeks where we didn’t make it out due to foul weather but the weather is much nicer these days. With seas about 2-4′ we can easily get out there to swordfish grounds when the smaller boats can’t make it. That gives us the whole ocean to ourselves. The swordfish bite wasn’t red hot this week, but we did manage to catch a nice one.

Fort Lauderdale Friday Night Swordfishing Charter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now, there are a few trips a year that really astound me, and this trip last night absolutely did for me. Our luck on our swordfish trips lately has been kinda down these past few weeks. The past few Friday nights hasn’t been that good for us. Last week we fished the Sword Lords Tournament and we hooked into3 fish, but unfortunately pulled the hooks on all 3 fish. Needless to say, our luck has been down for about 3 weeks now. But we were due. We were due for a good trip and last night was it! Continue reading
