Stanczyk and Gaspeny perfected a deep-water baitfishing system in which they could hook and catch swordfish consistently during daylight hours-something that had been done with varying degrees of success off Venezuela and elsewhere. The two caught their first swordfish via this setup in January of 2003-and they kept on catching swords, nearly every time they went out. This fence behind Bud N' Mary's-constructed from bills of swordfish they caught--is testament to their success.
