PB= party boat. We overnight in the canyons here in the North East. The swordfish have made a great comeback in recent years. Year befor last there was one caught on the PB I fish on that went an estimated 600#. When I get a chance I'll look for the article.

Makule - Have read of guys catching swordfish at night over on the Kona side.  Don't know of anyone doing that here off Oahu; do you guys get them off the Hilo side?

Perhaps some have been caught off the Hilo side, but I haven't heard.  Only know that commercial boats do get them once in a while but they're 200+ miles out.
