Should we have kept this fish? (Yes it was LEGAL) Swordfish Catch/Clean/Cook

  • In this episode we head out for a daytime swordfish trip aboard the Broad Minded with Niles and his family and friends. On the second drift we hook up to a double header. The big one gets away but we tag and release a juvenile swordfish. A couple hours later we hook up to another double header and keep the first legal size fish for dinner and then are faced with a dilemma. Our third swordfish of the day was foul hooked and floating, so we had to make a decision whether to let it float for dead or bring it home (yes it was legal size). We make the more ethical decision and bring it back to the marina for dinner. Back on land we cook some fresh swordfish on the flattop grill while swimming in the pool!

    Capt. Nick, Good to see you out on the big boat again 😊. You can alway tell when it a arm chair fisherman questioning why you didn’t let the legal fish go. They don’t have any idea about making the boat payment, paying for gas, bait, reels, rods, safety equipment, docking fees, maintenance and also the need try to let the paying customers not only have a good time but to go home with meat for the freezer so they will want to come back again. Good Job, good video keep them coming😊

  • @martyw9675

    You definitely made the right choice in keeping the floating fish. At least it was treated with respect and not discarded. There is far too much food wasted on this planet, so you are setting an excellent example in looking after it even in a small way. Well done Nick.

    If it’s legal there’s no shame in keeping it. I’ve seen you tag and release a lot more legal fish than I can remember. You do your part for the health of the oceans so keeping a smaller legal fish has been more than earned in your case my brother. Just keep on doing what you do and we’ll keep in watching and wishing we was on that trip.

    I'm 60 years old and have been fishing off of the coast of SC all my life. At one time it was prohibited to keep swords at all. They've made a come back but still have a way to go. I believe the size limit is too low. Now having said that, if you have a paying customer and a legal fish, it's a tough call.

    If anything the more ethical path is to take smaller fish and leave the successful larger breeders to make more delicious eating size small ones so both those fish are a great option to keep (also the mercury levels in the smaller ones are going to be a lot lower). I'm not saying don't keep the larger fish as you have a business to run and nothing is wasted but certainly don't feel bad about boating small boys.

      It’s 1 per person up to 6 per boat on charters, but we rarely keep more than 2 . We try to self regulate a little, but if a second fish is dead or in bad shape that’s usually a determining factor

That’s not possible. The ocean is so vast it’s amazing. Then add the depth of that water and just think of the cubic feet. It’s mind boggling. Speckle trout lay 100,000 to 500,000 eggs every few days during spawning. That’s just an average. The larger ones release in the millions per week.
