by It’s been very windy and rough off Florida’s east coast this winter, but on Feb.19 a couple of fishermen were able to get offshore with their 42-foot Duffy to deep drop for swordfish. Everything went well for them as they boated a sword estimated at 500 pounds by formula. Unfortunately, this wasn’t a qualifying sportfishing catch as an electric reel was used.
A small craft advisory is up in NY/NJ Bight from this evening to next. Friday starts with southwest winds at 10-15 knots plus gusts to 20. Seas are 4 to 6 feet in an easterly swell which produce rough inlets. Rain is also predicted.
