Default 600lb.Sword?

Anyone have any info about the 600lb. fish that was supposedly caught on Saturday night? I heard about it on the VHF coming into port that night - but no news since....

It was a Mako. Heard the guy dragging it back to the Port backwards on the side of his boat.

Thanks for the info... maybe one day someone will catch a Swordfish that big out here. That is, if the longliners are not permitted to come back into our waters...

I asked them if they neede help but they said they were OK. I think he said the boat name was Jigit or something. Anyways I also saw a large commercial boat head out about 1am or so and start dropping?
