It's not eligible for a record because 3 guys took turns in the chair.

it took seven people to haul the massive fish off the boat.

Bah, humbug! What were these, children!?... Sorry, the old gym rat is coming out in me and something like this just jumps up and slaps me upside the head like... like a swordfish! Plus I been drinkin'.

I hope they kept the fish and didn't release it. Sharks follow fishing boats and feast on exhausted fish released back into the water.

Except for the captain, the people he took out were first timers. That would definitely make you feel awkward. Like the time in my 20s when I was hired by a company in October and a month later I won the annual Thanksgiving turkey giveaway drawing that the company put on every year. There I was, standing there, with all these old-timers staring darts at me because they had been there 40 years and had NEVER won the turkey. AWWWKWARD! Though I imagine the swordfish would be about ten thousand times worse.

When I first started reading the title, my brain was expecting to read
“Florida fishing boat captain reels in 757 AR-15’s.”

I have been fishing with Nick since he was four years old.He's in his 30’s now and weighs about 140 lbs. soaking wet.I don't know how they ever got that fish in the boat.took eight hours to catch.Monday I road to Miami Beach with his father who started the daytime swordfishing about 10-12 years ago. We worked together on the tackle and I built him a bunch of rods for swordfishing.
I have been complaining for a week now that this is a catch of a lifetime and the media acts like it never happened while Tiger Woods a three time loser in marriage,boozer et all gets all the PR.Not fair.
Anyway word is swordfish get to be over 1,000 lbs. I can't wait for someone to catch a grander.
