Catching a Daytime Surface Swordfish on live bait! - The rarest catch in the world

Season Two: Episode 4 | Hunting Surface Swords Part I In between world tour destinations the team takes a quick break to return to one of their favorite local SoCal fisheries, the illusive surface swordfish. It’s been nearly 4 years since Anthony Hsieh and the BadCo team successfully landed a surface swordfish casting a live bait on stand up conventional tackle. With word going around about local sightings, the team prepares their newly refitted 92 Jones Goodell for a 5 day trip at some of the outer islands. It’s been nearly 2 years since anyone has fished the vessel, as it’s been in the yard for over 18 months. Tune in for a shakedown trip to remember and some incredible never-seen-before surface swordfish footage. Some new faces make an appearance and joining the team is good friend and artist Carey Chen. Hope you all enjoy. For more information about the team, fleet, and tour, head over to badcompanyfishingadventures.com or become part of our crew and join the Adventure at badcocrew.com.
