Today I’m going sword fishing. I’ve been extremely frustrated at my last four attempts at landing one. These monster fish are caught on the bottom of the ocean in 1500-2000 feet of water. It is very difficult to let out line to that depth without it twisting and spinning. It is an artform to let out that much line and time it to land on the precise spot that the fish inhabit taking into consideration the Gulf Stream current that averages 4 miles per hour. Then one must be able to detect the bite which is all but imperceptible at those depths, manage to hook the fish which can weigh over 500 lbs and reel it up over a quarter of a mile. One friend of mine described it as trying to fish in a gold fish bowl from the top of the Empire State Building . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/index.php/2019/03/religion-versus-relationship/
