Swordfish Trips Swordfish trips can be either day, night, or a combination. Night fishing is the traditional way to target these amazing fish and the L&H has a very long history of night time swordfish success! Normally we leave at 6:00pm and return at 3:00am, but again we are flexible and will adjust times although sometimes the fish do that for us. The past few years the L&H has also enjoyed the success of daytime sword fishing which is relatively new to our area. In fact Captain Jimmy and his crew caught over 50 daytime swordfish (several over 400 pounds) on the L&H before a single other daytime swordfish was caught by all other Key Biscayne charter boats combined!! Normally for daytime sword trips we leave at 7:00am and return around 5:00pm. Our favorite sword trip is a day/night combo! This trip allows you to fish for swords during the day and night. This is very unique because it involves two totally different fishing methods both of which are extremely successful. Some of the largest swordfish have been taken on a day/night combination trip.
