Giant tropical swordfish - Northern sea swordfish hunt - Extremely rare fish in Northern sea - Russian Fishing Day
A man from the Russian city of Kaliningrad caught a gigantic swordfish on July 12, which was marked as Fishing Day in Russia. The fish weighed more than 75 kilos – such large tropical fish is extremely rare in Russia’s northern seas. The man caught the swordfish on the coast of the Baltic Sea, near the town of Baltiisk.
Specialists find it difficult to explain why the fish migrated from warm to cold waters and why it left its usual habitat. The fish was caught near the beach, where it found itself as a result of a heavy storm.
Aleksey Lyatun, an experienced Russian fisherman, had to take a lot of effort to catch the three-meter-long fish. The man and the fish were of the same weight - they were struggling on equal terms, in the same weight category.
The delicious meat of the swordfish was served at a party to celebrate the Fishing Day. The man delivered the fish’s head to the scientists of a local university.
Swordfish, also known as Broadbill in some countries, are large, highly migratory, predatory fish characterized by a long, flat bill. They are a popular sport fish, though elusive. Swordfish are elongated, round-bodied, and lose all teeth and scales by adulthood. They reach a maximum size of 177 in. (455 cm) and 1,400 lb (650 kg).
