Using A Drum For Swordfish Fishing

 Fishing for swordfish is one of the most challenging types of fishing there are. The gear you need to rake in the trophy fish are extensive, not to mention the high price tag that comes with it. One of the best ways to get started fishing for these elusive beasts is by finding a great swordfish charter boat near you.



Finding A Charter Boat To Go Swordfishing From

One of the first things you need to do if you want to catch swordfish is find a charter boat that offers them as a catch. You can check out ads and coupon newsletters for local tuna and swordfish charters to see if any of the boats you're interested offer trips specifically for this fish. Some will offer one-day deep sea fishing trips just for swordfish, while others may only occasionally do so when they have a large enough group of people who want to make the journey.  The truth is, many of these tuna charters also offer swordfishing trips because having a boat load of anglers on board help cut down the cost for each person.

Booking A Sword Fishing Trip

Before signing up for a day out on a charter boat to go swordfishing, you should find out if the trip is already booked for that day. Some of these boats have long waiting lists just to get a spot on one of their swordfishing trips due to the high demand from anglers wanting to catch this fish. When you can't find a boat with an open spot heading out on a sword fishing trip, you should consider booking one ahead of time. If the charters don't have any open spots and you can't book a trip in advanced, you might want to check back with them later on to see if there are any cancellations or openings that day.

Adequate Sword Fish Gear - What To Bring

When you finally get out on the water with one of these charters, make sure you bring everything they tell you to bring on the trip. They may not let you fish for swordfish if you don't have all of your gear with you, which is why it's important to bring what they ask on the day of your trip. Many boats will require you to use a certain kind of rod and reel setup that is suited for fighting this fish.

You'll want to bring along large reels that hold at least 500 yards of braided line with a high pound test rating. Braided line will cut through the water better than monofilament or fluorocarbon, which makes it more manageable to reel in this large fish. Most anglers will use a big game fishing rod that's specifically designed for fighting these types of fish. These rods usually have a strong backbone and can handle the pressure from swordfish as you fight them.

The best type of rod and reel combo to use when swordfishing is a setup with an open faced reel and a heavy duty rod. You'll be fighting these fish for a long time so you need a strong setup that's going to hold up during the battle. A multiplier reel with a bent butt rod is also ideal, but can get pretty expensive so try renting one before you purchase it if you aren't sure whether or not this type of setup is for you.

Bring A Swordfish Bait Rig

One of the biggest mistakes anglers make when swordfish is bringing the wrong kind of bait to help lure these fish in. The typical way people go about catching swordfish is by trolling with a big ballyhoo on the end of their line while using mackerel or squid to attract the fish. It's much easier to reel in a swordfish when you have live bait on your hook since their sense of smell is so well developed.

The problem with bringing live bait is that it can be hard to keep this kind of lure alive when trolling behind the boat, and they usually won't last more than 30 minutes before you lose them by accident. This is why many people use rigs with dead squid or mackerel on the end of their line to catch these fish.
