Technically not a game fish but caught during a break in trolling at One base recently.
Quality angler, quality gear. Great catch on mono from 200 metres.Wink


If you think you can or think you can't either way you are right

We spent the day out in the Garden Patch Tongue with several other boats including Primetime, Flat arse conditions, best water tempo 19deg, nice clear Blue, no bites on swords for us, but I hear Nicky on Ados Hooked on Fishing has a story about the Big one that got away! Hard Luck Nicky CryCry, those Big Swords are a handlful alright, cheers swordfishsteve
