“Every person of learning is finally his own teacher.”
- Thomas Paine
The picture is getting clearer and clearer.
I’ll be publishing an updated Billfish article momentarily, in which their actual origin and dispersion may be clearly discerned.
THE DATA
From 1978 to 2022, the Florida state record swordfish increased in size by 23.8%, from 612 pounds to 757.8 pounds.
The uncredited author from tampabay.com omitted the percentage, and replaced it with the terse, general “broke the previous record”.
In July 1980, Tom Dentin caught the Louisiana state record swordfish. It weighed 310 pounds. There are no records of the fish before or since.
It looks like the swordfish first manifested in the Gulf of Mexico in the waters off Louisiana in July 1980, at a threshold weight of 310 pounds. It is then absent from the record until 2003, when it reappeared in the waters off Alabama at a lower threshold weight of 225 pounds.
From 1980 to 2005, the Gulf of Mexico record swordfish increased in size by 13%, from 310 pounds to 350 pounds. That’s an average annual increase in size of .52% per year over each of those 25 years.
From 2005 to 2006, the Gulf of Mexico record swordfish increased in size by 28%, from 350 pounds to 448 pounds.
The uncredited author from louisianasportsman.com omitted the percentage, and replaced it with the lurid-but-general “angler shatters Gulf swordfish record”.
he 28% increase in size of the Gulf of Mexico record swordfish from 2005 to 2006 is 5,284% greater than its .52% average annual increase from 1980 to 2005.
The growth rate of the swordfish in the Gulf of Mexico is increasing hyper-exponentially, going forward in time. That’s not scientifically possible, at least not according the rapidly-collapsing false Orthodoxy which holds that organisms increase in ever-smaller increments to a genetically-programmed maximum size.
The truth is that the size, fertility, longevity and very existence of any organism vary directly with the health of its etheric environment.
Instructively, we learned in my article immediately preceding this one that the swordfish winked into existence in Maryland in July 2021 for the first time in history, at a threshold weight of 301 pounds.
Marland.gov said in comment: “Deep dropping for swordfish has gained in popularity over the last few years, resulting in more catches of large swordfish.”
From its initial manifestation in July 2021 to September 2022, the swordfish in the waters off Maryland at then increased in size by 31% to 393 pounds.
The 28% increase in size of the swordfish in the Gulf of Mexico from 2005 to 2006 is statistically nearly identical to the 31% increase in size of the Maryland state record swordfish from 2021 to 2022.
THE ARTICLES
FLORIDA STATE RECORD SWORDFISH, 2019
On April 22, 2019, tampabay.com said "Florida couple land record-breaking swordfish that fought for eight hours, dragged boat 20 miles".
Where the uncredited author omitted the word “state” from “state record”, and then said "Florida couple land record-breaking swordfish, and went on and on about it, to infer that it was greater fishing skill or assiduousness that led to the sudden, exponential increases between the old record and the new.
For those late to the party, anytime an author is uncredited, it is proof that said author is an Intelligence operative.
The article goes on to say “Bill Lussier ended up reeling in a 757.8-pound swordfish, which broke the previous Florida record set in May 7, 1978. That’s when Stephen Stanford reeled in a 612-pound broadbill off Key Largo, according to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.”
Where the uncredited Intelligence operative from tampabay.com twice repeated “reeling in” and “reeled in” to hammer home the meme that it was greater fishing skill or assiduousness that led to the sudden, exponential increases between the old record and the new. In the propaganda trade, that’s known as “neurolinguistic programming”. It works on the childlike subconscious, particularly of those who breath through their mouths.
I’m guessing you noticed that, while loving them some fish like writing about them is their anonymous job, the uncredited author omitted the percentage of the increase, and instead replaced with the terse, general “broke the previous record”. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
So, I had to do the math to learn that, from 1978 to 2022, the Florida state record swordfish increased in size by 23.8%, from 612 pounds to 757.8 pounds.
Such records are usually broken by tiny margins. Here, the record sat unbroken for decades, and then was suddenly broken by an exponential margin.
Only interviews with honest fisherfolk will reveal if the swordfish was absent from the waters off Florida from 1978 to 2022, or whether they were caught continuously at smaller than state record sizes.
But for the moment, let’s presume they were there, all along, albeit in smaller than state record sizes? What caused the swordfish in the waters off Florida to suddenly increase exponentially in size to the largest in history, there?
The size, fertility and longevity and very existence of any organism vary directly with the health of its etheric environment.
GULF OF MEXICO RECORD SWORDFISH, 2006
On September 20, 2006, louisianasportsman.com said “Angler shatters Gulf swordfish record”.
Where, under the false guise of familiarity, the uncredited author omitted “Mexico” from “Gulf of Mexico”, to make the subject far less searchable. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
They said “angler shatters record” to infer that it was greater fishing skill or assiduousness that led to the sudden, exponential increases between the old record and the new.
For those late to the party, anytime an author is uncredited, it is proof that said author is an Intelligence operative.
I’m guessing you noticed that “shatters record”, while lurid, is general. The propagandist from the state propaganda organ known as louisianasportsman.com knows that, since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, their hedging generality goes a long way toward obfuscating the speed and scope of the exponential increase in size of the swordfish that I’m documenting here.
The article goes on to say "exactly 2 years to the day, and almost to the exact hour, that Hurricane Ivan struck Orange Beach, Ala., the Gulf of Mexico swordfish record was broken. Angler Del Sawyer, along with Capts. Randy Howland and Robby Griffiths and crew of the Sea Reaper III, hooked the swordfish at 3:45 a.m. on Sept. 16. Sawyer fought the 448-pound fish, while standing up, for 3 hours and 45 minutes.
According to Alabama Outdoors, the previous record for a Swordfish caught in the Gulf of Mexico was 350 pounds, and was set in 2005 by an angler from Gulf Shores, Ala."
Where, despite loving them some fish like writing about them is, in fact, their job, the uncredited author from louisianaoutdoor.com somehow managed to omit the name of the previous record holder, and then say nothing whatsoever about the margins between the records.
Those are examples of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
From 2005 to 2006, the Gulf of Mexico record swordfish increased in size by 28%, from 350 pounds to 448 pounds.

Instructively, we’ve learned recently that the swordfish winked into existence in Maryland in July 2021 for the first time in history, at a threshold weight of 301 pounds. Marland.gov “Deep dropping for swordfish has gained in popularity over the last few years, resulting in more catches of large swordfish.”
From its initial manifestation in July 2021 to September 2022, the swordfish in the waters off Maryland at then increased in size by 31% to 393 pounds.

THE SWORDFISH WINKS BACK INTO EXISTENCE IN THE GULF OF MEXICO IN THE WATERS OFF ALABAMA - 2003
On October 21, 2003, Terry Bunn caught the Alabama State record swordfish. It weighed 225 pounds.
Since Alabama is on the Gulf of Mexico, that would be, de facto, the Gulf of Mexico record swordfish.
There are no records of the swordfish in Alabama prior to 2003.
In 2003, the swordfish winked into existence in the waters off Alabama, at a threshold weight of 225 pounds.
From 2003 to 2005, the Gulf of Mexico record swordfish increased in size by 55%, from 225 pounds to 350 pounds.
LOUISIANA STATE RECORD SWORDFISH, 1980
In July 1980, Tom Dentin caught the Louisiana state record swordfish. It weighed 310 pounds. There are no records of the fish before or since.
It looks like the swordfish first manifested in the Gulf of Mexico in the waters off Louisiana in July 1980, at a threshold weight of 310 pounds. It is then absent from the record until 2003, when it reappeared in the waters off Alabama at a lower threshold weight of 225 pounds.
Louisiana and Alabama are right next to one another. Why would one state record be 38% larger than the other?
