Daytime Swordfishing – Rigging A Float

Jun 5, 2018 by Robert "Fly" Navarro

Daytime Swordfishing Rigging Float

Fly Navarro is back with his good friend Capt. Paco Vela to continue their series on rigging up for daytime swordfishing. In this fishing video tip, they demonstrate how to add a float to the line once your bait is near the bottom. The float adds tension to the swordfish bait during its final decent and indicates a bite if it happens during the drop.

Its a lot like using a bobber, but then again not.

Fly Navarro will take us to the “Fly Zone” with his vast knowledge and list of fishing connections. Visit his Fly Zone Fishing site or Facebook to learn more or to ask Fly a question.

Known by most on the docks as “Fly,” you can pretty much expect to see Robert "Fly" Navarro at the sport's largest tournaments and hot spots. Fly began the life of a traveling deckhand in his early 20's. He took a childhood passion and turned it into a career that took him around the world working on the top offshore fishing boats. Then he leveraged his reputation as a mate to launch a magazine (In the Bite), a marketing agency (Fly Zone Fishing) and several tournaments (The Sailfish Tournament, King of the Hill, and the Gulf Cup Blue Marlin Shootout). He was also recently named the new Tournament Director for the World Cup Blue Marlin Championship.
