Toronto_Angler Posted November 25, 2019 Report Share Posted November 25, 2019 (edited) Wow crazy story and once in a lifetime catch. I ignored the P3TA stuff as it was a legal catch, eaten and thats how he makes his living. Sad thats its even a debate https://www.tampabay.com/florida/2019/05/08/a-record-breaking-swordfish-was-caught-after-an-8-hour-fight-its-legal-but-is-it-right/ Edited November 25, 2019 by Toronto_Angler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKRISONER Posted November 25, 2019 Report Share Posted November 25, 2019 nice catch...but i dont know who in the hell would want to eat that thing unless you are into lead poisoning and cancer. Could you imagine the level of biomagnification goin on in a predatory fish that size. Yeeesh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OhioFisherman Posted November 25, 2019 Report Share Posted November 25, 2019 Ever see the program Wicked Tuna? People have no problem paying thousands of dollars for a big bluefin tuna, and they seem to eat the same baits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misfish Posted November 25, 2019 Report Share Posted November 25, 2019 🤣 “I am not going against fishing, I am against unnecessarily harmful practices that harm species,” Shiffman said. “It’s not illegal, they did eat it rather than take a picture and dump it overboard for no reason, but it didn’t need to have been killed.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love saltwater fish. i know swordfish and Tuna are full of mercury but damn they taste good. Everything in moderation I guess 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
