George Poveromo goes Daytime Swordfishing in Islamorada

George Poveromo goes on to battle four big Florida Keys swordfish - releasing a 175-pounder and boating a 256-pounder. And if that's not enough, gets pulled overboard by a monster! Take a look and see why daytime Swordfishing out of Islamorada can keep you very busy!

George, This video is your BEST ever. Congratulations on those fish and glad you survived. Capt Nick is the BEST! We filmed him for our show, Adventures In Fishing with Capr Ray Kelly, at 10 years old with Richard and then again at 20 after he became a Capt. Hope to film him again one day. Tightines!!!

I didn't realize this video was from 7 years ago, but you said Swordfish in the Keys and I thought Nick Stanczyk. Guy is the best.

George what was the worst conditions you've ever been out with your 28 ft Mako ?

One of these decades im going to fly to the states and look for broadies. Got some of the best marlin grounds on the east coast of Australia not to mention great Land based gamefishing for big tuna and cobia. But no one wants to try for broadies.
