Near *QUARTER TON* Swordfish with Capt. Nick Stanczyk! Catch Clean and Cook

[@Clarke16]

You have been successful catching fish because of your generosity when you do. The Lord loves a cheerful giver.

[@pahanin2480]

It’s because he’s a Green Bay Packers fan

[@derek91101ify]

maybe that’s why i have only put a doe down this year.. gotta quit being stingy with my back straps 😂 (me and every other hunter on earth with their backstaps)

[@12982evets]

Love how you guys share out fish to fans and bystanders all the time. Thats so decent and cool.

[@StanzFam]

Thanks, if we have enough to go around and the clients don’t mind sharing some we like to give some away

[@williamhartlage2383]

The relationship you have with your family, friends and followers cannot be more real. That’s why I follow Stazfam.

[@StanzFam]

Nice to see people do what they love with friends, having fun at the same time, so many ways to cook that big sword fish, save me a bite, much love.👍💯

They don't understand where the fish they eat in the store or in restaurants come from. That fish will feed everyone on the boat and then some!

they were jealous no more

[@Pendragon501]

Just an FYI for everyone regarding PB Blaster Penetrating Oil: "Project Farm" did a very in-depth independent test comparing several penetrating oils at all price points. PB Blaster came in second to last, beating only Areo Kroil. The video is up on KZbin, it's easy to find. I don't know how the rest of their products perform other than their Silicon Lubricant which has worked well for me in the past, but I have no basis for comparison.

[@officerkrupke4966]

I am a retired Chief Engineer in the US Merchant Marine. Every ship I was ever on from all the way to the days I was a cadet, we always used PB blaster as our go to penetrating oil. In the salt air environment, you can imagine how many times it was needed, and always did the job. Good sponsor Nick.

[@Pendragon501]

@@officerkrupke4966 That's all well and good, but your job would have been easier had you guys used a different penetrating oil, and that's a proven fact.

[@officerkrupke4966]

@@Pendragon501 It does the job, and it didnt make any jobs I did harder, it made them easier. If you know how to use it, it helps. Sometimes you have to get out the torch. What is your experience in the field if I may ask?

broooo! SIX ads man! feel like i’m watching Wicked Tuna.. hour long block for the episode, but only 24 minutes of actual footage! either way solid catch! you’re an absolute savage of a captain 👨‍✈️

[@thomastaranto5722]

Oh, Man watching that fish getting caught is exhilarating. Heart pumping, adrenaline flowing. Absolutely INCREDIBLE! keep ALL THESE VIDEOS COMING!!

[@MrBIGNAWD]

AWESOME JOB GUYS.. GREAT TO SHARE THAT FISH WITH PEOPLE THAT WATCH YOU CHANNEL...GOD BLESS FROM LOUISIANA.. VENICE LA...

[@johnnyeg62]

Good lord! I'll meet you at the dock; you catch em I'll show you how yo cook em. I promise you'll never be bored of swordfish again!!!

Unbelievable fish and another great video man thanks for sharing it with me. And if this is anyway the year is going to go I can’t wait to see what’s to come.

[@samnorman5594]

WOW that was a big one. The Dr. Sadie is always hungry, she is so pretty. Looks like our prayers are being answered. What a way to start 2021. You keep fishing, I'll keep praying. Give Sara and Claire my love . God Bless, Sam

[@jamesstavros3680]

Another Great Video...it's always inspiring when you take care of the people around you and fans on the dock..

[@robertg305]

Awesome to see you with a successful KZbin channel. I’ll never forget in the Late 90’s when when we were kids and my boat broke down and you were nice enough to tow me in. We were both in middle school and never talked lol but you were nice enough to stop and help. I’ll never forget that. Glad to see you’re doing good

[@thomasgistinger1885]

Man, what a fish !!! I bet those commercial boats are wishing they caught that... I waned to say thank you for continuing to post videos on a regular basis.. Many other channels have slowed down the number of videos they post since the pandemic started, but you keep fresh content posted no matter what is happening... Thanks again

[@UltimateFishingFloat]

Congratulations on a beautiful fish! Best of luck with the new enterprise.

[@jimlynch720]

Great start to 2021 nick may your luck stay with you as long as possible.

[@andrewthorn3928]

Great looking steak, my daughter loves eating sword fish from the age of five, she is nineteen know, still loves eating it , great looking fish keep them coming.

[@VibN117]

Honestly one of the best looking videos on youtube ill say it every time.

[@BroadBillHunter]

fought him an hour after he came up and took a nice dart. these fish are crazy. this video really shows how hard these broadbills fight. hopefully we get another shot at a big sword soon the line broke on our last one :(

[@mattmatthew2440]

congrats, ive had sword fish one time 12 years ago i can still remember the taste and it was delicious, very meaty and solid.

[@jakekish2821]

Sweet!! Sure hoping to get a future charter with you

[@lindabutler7914]

Now ,Captain Nick that's a great day fishing!!! 🤩🤩

Great fish! Amazing how hard these fish can fight and how long it sometimes takes to bring them in!

Ah man, Bitter sweet! Nick we could tell you were a little disappointed it had eggs, but it was a big mama! Thanks for showing us some action. 🤙Aloha

Yah Man! Great fish!... And an appearance by Jamaican Mike! 😎🍻 And Sadie Approved!.. couldn’t ask for more!

[@davidthodorejohnson]

Love your videos Capt Nick! I think it would be interesting to see what you do at the helm while they are reeling in the swords.

[@raybowles8587]

Wow, I bet that was a load trying to get that in the boat. I have never eaten sword fish. Can't wait to try it some day. Thanks for the awesome video. I love watching, especially now when it is cold here in Kentucky.

[@jaken9438]

Easy on all that swordfish Nick! Don’t want to get mercury poisoning!!!

[@kikisekau]

AMAZING FISH 👏👏 ! I know I have said it many times but your babies are so adorable! I love watching Sadie, she reminds me so much of our little one with the way she acts, ours turned 4 in December! I just know you are going to do great things with your personal brand!!!

Awesome! Thanks!

[@JonasTroyer]

Wow! What a fish! I think I’m going to join your waiting list Nick!

[@quintonwinborn7026]

Holy cow thats a big fish!! That is amazing. Keep up the great videos.

[@Drundel]

Ghee is the pros choice in cooking. Last summer I had fresh redfish and fresh red snapper. We used ghee on the redfish and butter on the snapper and the same seafood seasoning on both. The redfish was hands down better; it makes that much of a difference in cooking.

[@StanzFam]

Good to know! Thanks

[@rajaskadam630]

It is GHEE(clarified Butter ) mostly used in Indian cuisine love from India NICK

[@airflez]

Loving the PB blaster colab! Thank you for all the awesome content!

[@StanzFam]

Thanks!

[@hnt4fsh]

Best Swordfish I ever are was at Fishtales in Cape Coral. They seasoned it and dropped it in deep fryer. Crazy good! Love your vids good luck on your new adventure!

[@wrightackle1]

Where's the lemon? Loved that cast iron skillet. Dawson knows whats up in the kitchen. Only thing that would have made that better would have been drop it in a casserole dish and tent it up and let it make that glorious juice. Cook it a little less time maybe and let it steam under the foil. Then slice it thin and dredge it through that fish liquor. That music for the ride back was perfect.

[@StanzFam]

🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@matthewmeaux3450]

@Stanzfam, Always cook the seasoned side first and lightly season the other side.

[@riverakers]

Fantastic fish.I have passed Bud and Mary’s in the past before your You tube channel.I actually took a picture of the marina sign back in 2011.I always wanted to check it out but was heading back to the mainland.Maybe in the future I will get a chance to take a look.Good luck with your future business.I have no doubt it will be successful!

Never had swordfish but we are dying to try it! Great video! Lovely baby girls!

Geez Louise!!! That is most definitely a fish of a lifetime!! A shame it expired before some under water shots could have been taken though. Still, I hope this is an omen of good fortune for you and all the StanzFam members, and I for one will continue to be glued to every episode you put out (beats looking at the 2-3ft of snow on my lawn)!! Cheers from Alberta Canada!!
