    Record on the Channel Scabbard fish is 8lb 9oz. I had to go check them out. Very little is known about them besides they are found at 600’ and deeper, they aren’t protected, they don’t have scales, nothing on aging or diet or how widespread. Record was caught out of Rio de Janeiro.

    I have heard them called cutlass fish. the smaller ones, ribbon fish or silver eels, used for kingfish bait. Very good on a downrigger. I bet during a kingfish tournament someone would give $50. for one that size. When I was a kid someone caught one about 3.5 feet long in the ICW here in NE FL.

  • @calvinh.8882
    @calvinh.8882 10 місяців тому

    That Silver Scabbard is a cool fish, we used to catch some big ones near the North and South bridges in Fort Pierce Florida. A lot of people call them Ribbon Fish, but that is not the correct name, they are Silver Scabbards, and there are also Black Scabbards. It's kinda weird catching them near those bridges in Fort Pierce because they usually live in REALLY deep water, like 500 to over 2000 feet deep, and come up at night to feed. Cool catch.
    You mentioned Oarfish, they are a lot different, they don't have teeth and they have really long thin fins that come off the top and bottom of their heads, and they get A LOT longer. like up to 30ft long. But I think most that are caught are around 10ft.

    I like the idea of the Nik stick, do you make a two piece one that would fit in a suitcase?
    I have to say it doesn’t look like the best slow pitch rod for that weight of jig though…. The tip never straightens up so it’ll never have the slack it needs to flutter back down. Even with the best rods that’s hard to do in 800ft though I suppose

    • @StanzFam
      @StanzFam  11 місяців тому +1

      Seafood Stuffed Silver Scabbard with a Seafood Beurre Blanc isn’t interesting? You must have a hell of a culinary repertoire.

    Hello, I'm sorry to tell you that in South America, when you catch that fish, you think that a strong earthquake or earthquake will happen with a lot of damage, so be careful, be alert.

      One more thing to break and service. And the cats rock a fraction of a traditional monohull

    We use to catch these on a shrimp boat and tried to save them if they was still alive and throw them back
