Hey guys just wondering if any one has ever tryed dropping for swords at the madden banks?? Dose anyone know if the comm boys target them out there? I’m very keen to give it a decent go when the weather suits. Also from looking into it I believe the bluefin run up past there around April? Anyone ever targeted them? Any knowledge shared would be much appreciated! Cheers

hey Mate yes what I found is that there are swords there apparently all year round and the bluefin run past in April start of May (work temp brakes at 1000m+) I see there was a sword caught out there this year. I have done a few trips out there. With no success on the swords but always get a feed of deep water fish
