Dont fire until you see the whites of their eyes!

Just like bow hunting from a boat. I can't wait until June!

I do know that the Canadians got the better side of line when it comes to swordfishing. The area on the far eastern end of Georges Bank, up near the Northeast Channel has been on fire the past seven or so years. I talked with a spotter pilot who flew out there and he said it was pretty crazy with Canadian stick boats and with fish.

They're still all over Georges on our side it just seems the fish favor the other side, up on the Northern Edge and across the Northeast Peak.

Pretty cool fish.
