Swordfish kills fisherman 22/11/2005 15:07 - (SA) Kuala Lumpur - A fisherman died two days after a swordfish pierced his brain, while he was out at sea fishing, said a report on Tuesday. The Malay Mail newspaper reported that in the freak accident at sea on Saturday, off the northern state of Kedah, a swordfish, measuring 0.3m leapt out of the water and stabbed Adnan Walid, 39, in his right eye. Though the swordfish missed his eyeball, the fish's beak pierced the brain. Although the fisherman managed to pull the fish out of his eye, a piece of its beak got lodged in the brain, which caused his death. Swash Channel terrorised by 6' Garfish Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Mad Mike Hi Mike Does this mean I have to fit those long poles to the side of the boat and go at some stupid speed with giant lures trolling out the back? I think I will wait until the spring and the yachties come out to play for the new year and watch them swerve out of the way of those boom things Coddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
