George Poveromo goes Daytime Swordfishing in Islamorada

George Poveromo goes on to battle four big Florida Keys swordfish - releasing a 175-pounder and boating a 256-pounder. And if that's not enough, gets pulled overboard by a monster! Take a look and see why daytime Swordfishing out of Islamorada can keep you very busy!

Saw this on wfn, what a day!

[@captraykelly]

George, This video is your BEST ever. Congratulations on those fish and glad you survived. Capt Nick is the BEST! We filmed him for our show, Adventures In Fishing with Capr Ray Kelly, at 10 years old with Richard and then again at 20 after he became a Capt. Hope to film him again one day. Tightines!!!

[@TheBarred123]

huge man vs fish battle

[@scottH18370]

George, heading to the keys this spring would you be willing to share those swordfish numbers 😁

[@elvinsmatthew]

One of these decades im going to fly to the states and look for broadies. Got some of the best marlin grounds on the east coast of Australia not to mention great Land based gamefishing for big tuna and cobia. But no one wants to try for broadies.

[@blokefromthebush]

I'm up in Townsville and would freaking love to chase them up here

[@elvinsmatthew]

what out past the out edge of the reef? do they get them up there?

[@blokefromthebush]

+Matthew Elvins out past the shelf is where I'm planning on going about 150km off shore. I'm not sure if they get them up this far but only one way to find out

[@elvinsmatthew]

blokefromthebush we dont even know if there here. and the shelf is only 30 miles offshore.

[@blokefromthebush]

+Matthew Elvins yeah shelf starts at 140km up here so long run. Will be making it 48hr trip

[@davidwaite2053]
